Vaelyn is on a distinguished road
I've noticed that in CFX you are able to set a minimum volume fraction of a phase in individual domains of your geometry. Is there an equivalent in Fluent?


I'm modelling a filter. One of the issues I'm having is the solid particulate going through the porous zone when the volume fraction reaches close to the packing limit at the upstream domain. What i am willing to do is to set the minimum volume fraction of the liquid in the porous media to 1.0, enforcing the solid to be retained at the upstream region.
