Hi everyone,

I recently started learning how to use Fluent and I'm having some trouble with species transport.

For some reason, air from one of my cell zones(air chamber) is not flowing into the other cell zone(combustion chamber). Similarly, propane from the fuel chamber is not flowing into the combustion chamber.

I've set the edge that air is supposed to flow into the combustion chamber as an inlet vent. But I've also tried velocity inlet and others to no avail.

Please take a look at the pictures and let me know if you see something I'm not doing right.

(Attached: Mesh, thin tube where propane enters combustion chamber with species of c3h8 being shown, Velocity Magnitude Diagram, nozzles where air is supposed to enter combustion tube with species of o2 being shown.)

Cheers,
Sean Morais
