Hi guys,
I don't have much experience with FLUENT yet, so this might be quite easy to most. I'm trying to simulate flow in a stirred tank. The fluid has a free surface at the top but I'm not sure what zero shear boundary condition type to use. Can I use "wall" type and set the shear to 0? Or can I use "symmetry" to get the zero shear effect as well? Are there any other options, and which would be prefered/ what is the exact difference? I tried to look for an explanation online but I can't find anything useful for FLUENT. Thanks! |
