Hello
I'm tired a problem for a long time

. Please help me.......
Does anyone know if it is possible to use mass flow outlet for multiphase flow in FLUENT 6.3.26?

I dont think u can use directly enter the value of mass flow rate at outlet..

By the way, what is your objective to enter the mass flowrate at outlet??

I am going to simulate drying process in a continuous grain dryer. wet grains enter drying bin at its top section with known mass flow rate, dried grains with the same inlet value are exit from bottom part of the drying bin. Hot air is blow through grain bed. (from bottom to top)
In defining b.cs it would be needed to insert mass flow outlet of grains in outlet port. Is it true?

In the interface of the mass flow outlet, you can mark "target mass flow rate", than put your values.... I believe you can do that.

Thanks for your reply. But in multiphase state this option is not available.
