Hello everybody,
I'm facing a challenging problem. I'm simulating the filling of a mould with plastic. The particularity is that the mould has a nanometric hollow, and I'm interested in knowing how the fluid fills this nanometric hollow which is a rectangle of 200nmx200 nm and with a depth of 300 nm. Obviously, meshing all the model with a mesh capable of taking into account this zone is computationaly unaffordable. Unfortunately, carrying out a refinement of the mesh around the nanometric mark leads to incorrect results (I've found literature stating this and I have tried it). I'm thinking of carrying out a submodeling of the nanometric zone, the procedure would consist on: 1) Carrying out a simulation of the entire mould with normal mesh. 2) Carrying out a simulation of the area around the nanometric mark using as a boundary conditions the results of the macro simulation. My question is regarding how could I extract the velocity and the pressure profiles. I've tried adding a line in the macro simulation and doing File/Export but the .csv file says null in the velocity column. Moreover, in the submodeling would I need transient boundary conditions? Or it would be enough for the submodeling to import the initial boundary condition? I would appreciate your suggestions in how to start solving this problem |
