Hi guys,
I am trying to create a pressure variation with time UDF for the walls of my tank. I will also try to do the same with temperature but I wrote a code for pressure first and I am not sure whether its correct

Its a little long because for each time I have a different pressure

From Ansys Fluent UDF Manual 15.0:

2.3.19.11. Example 9 - Mass Flow Rate UDF for the Mass Flow Inlet
This UDF is used to provide a time-varying specification of the mass flow rate. This boundary condition can be applied using a DEFINE_PROFILE UDF.....


#include "udf.h"
DEFINE_PROFILE(inlet_mf,th,i)
{
face_t f;
begin_f_loop(f,th)
{
if(CURRENT_TIME <= 0.01)
F_PROFILE(f,th,i) = 3.0;
else if(CURRENT_TIME <=0.02 && CURRENT_TIME >0.01)
F_PROFILE(f,th,i) = 4.0;
else
F_PROFILE(f,th,i) = 5.0;
}
end_f_loop(f,th);
}



You just have to do a bunch of else if!

Next time, ask on the UDF forum please: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/fluent-udf/
