Hello all,

I am analysing fluid flow through a flute-like container. After drawing the holes on the surfaces, I split it with the volume and then mesh it. but while exporting the mesh, holes dont get written. It displays an error : 'does not contain any valid entity'.

When it does get written, in Fluent, I get this error message : 'skipping zone- not referenced by grid'

What am I doing wrong here?

Can anybody help me out?

Thanks, Shankar.

Hello,

just a suggestion, maybe it's due to the fact you did not define any boundary conditions in this zone?

let me know

regards

David

hi thanks for your response david, i think i figured it out, splitting volume with a face doesnt create a hole, it has to be with another volume.
