JAKE-CU is on a distinguished road
I am running a series of steady-state airflow simulations and then using the converged steady-state airflow fields to run one-way coupled transient DPM simulations (without iterating on the airflow field).

Is there a way i could leverage a symmetry plane to reduce the calculation time of the symmetric airflow field but then reconstruct the full domain to run the particle simulations?

Since the particle simulations would not be symmetric as particles would not reflect at the center of the domain and injections will be located throughout the symmetric subdomain.

Is there a way to for example; export, transform about a center point, and reconstruct an .ip file from half or a quarter of a symmetric rectangular domain and loading them into a DPM simulation with a mesh of the full domain?
