Default how to set periodic boundary conditions

I have a problem in specifying periodic boundary conditions. The model I'm using is a section of a rectangular block with holes in it. The face to be patterned was specified as symmetric boundary condition when I modeled it in Gambit. there are two such faces parallel to each other. Periodic boundary condition is not highlighted in the define panel. I will be thankful to anyone who can tell me where I made a mistake.

I also tried to change the boundary condition of these faces to interface and grid interface these two faces with periodic type. When I iterate, it say "no periodic zones adjacent to grid interface"

It is ok to export the mesh out of GAMBIT with symmetric BCs,
because you (can) re-define them in FLUENT.

I believe for FLUENT you set the Periodic BC to Interfaces under "Boundary Conditions"
then under "Mesh Interfaces" you select the two Interfaces and set them to Periodic

Define in Gambit first, and import into fluent

When you define periodic boundary conditions in gambit, you need to link mesh the two faces/edges together. Try doing it and then export the mesh.

how to do the operation of link mesh the two faces/edges together n create periodic wall in GAMBIT???

thank you

If your problem is 3D then go to face mesh options
In 2nd row (by right clicking) you will see the link face mesh. Select the faces on both sides of periodic boundary and choose option of periodic (also select reverse direction if need be) and then set boundary contions of periodic in boundary conditon panel

hope it helps

i have a problem with 2d savonius rotor. I am trying to create periodic zones. now i want to know how to create shadow in gambit so that when we import in the fluent we can create periodic zones and delete the shadow zone.

I am simulating a moving 2-D droplet using Fluent 6.3, and i am using the translational periodic boundary condition so that when the droplet moves to the right boundary at the end of the domain it will re-appear on the left side of the domain. The problem i am facing is that when the droplet moves to the lower right side boundary, it re-appear on the upper left side boundary. So basically it translational on both X- and Y- axis.

How can i make it translational only in the X-Axis.

Thanks.

Dear all,
I have problems with periodic BC too. I want to remake geometry of mixing plane. So i import the fanstage.msh into GAMBIT. I have meshed and specified the fan. but when i export to FLUENT there are errors. I don't know how to fix it. Help me please!!
thanks you so much.

hi
i am using sliding mesh technique 2D analysis for train moving in tunnel. but not able to work properly , can any body help me
i had done following steps
1. made two separate models in gambit so that i can combine them in fluent
2. export them to fluent and fuse them their
3. checked grid , it was done
now i had to use boundary conditions ( mesh motion) and grind interface, but i am not able to that. plz can any one tell me am i doing perfectly and how to proceed further.
thanks

Hello,

Help please!

I wrote a 2D finite volume code for a rectangular using Neumann boundary in bottom, Dirichlet boundary at top and periodic boundary in x direction. I get some results and everything seems to be fine other than by results tilted toward right boundary and I'm assuming that is because of NOT applying correct periodic boundary condition. Could you please let me know how to build a coefficient matrix which have periodic boundary in x direction?

I appreciate if anybody can help me with that.

Hi,
How can we use same periodic conditions to
1.flow with a pressure drop,which is geometrically periodic in nature,and is not fully developed
and also to
2.Flow with a pressure drop,and fully developed flow(like fully developed flow through circular pipe)
Iam getting confused.Any body please clarify.

Hi, I am new to CFD.I have created a 2D plate and set its inlet outlet as periodic. I want to have flow by using pressure diference. Anyone know how may I set it in fluent? Thanks!

I believe for FLUENT you set the Periodic BC to Interfaces under "Boundary Conditions"
then under "Mesh Interfaces" you select the two Interfaces and set them to Periodic
Hi,

By default, the periodic surfaces are assigned as "periodic" right? So, I need to change it to "interface"?

Thanks
