Create Surface in Fluent for DPM

Jeeloong · June 3, 2015, 13:46

Dear all,

Let say I got a square pipe.

I am trying to make a surface that is 1/2 the height and full width which means effectively an rectangular shape. But it appears that I created in ICEM and the surface is not shown in the boundary list in the Fluent.

Is it impossible to create surface that is half suspended? I plan to release some particle using DPM approach.

Thanks

Regards,
Jee

Hi all,

I think I have solved the problem. I associated the blocks between two surfaces to the plane and the surface appears in Fluent. However, is it worth noting that the surface will be a solid wall which deflect the fluid. Hence, it should be specified with "interior".

Hope get it right this time.

Cheers,
Jee
