oscillating movement with sliding mesh
 
Hello!

I want to simulate an oscillating plate in a pipe. But with sliding mesh I have no possibility to work with UDFs for the moving speed. Has anyone a hint, how I can realise this?

Thanks!

Re: oscillating movement with sliding mesh
 
Ca you define macro in solve->ExecuteCommands->Define Macro such that it changes the boundary conditions of a zone with iteration or with time step. Once that is defined (assuming it could be done), you can write the oscilatroy motion as function (sorry for being so vague but i never done this before, there might be some people who has exp with define macro or with udf might be able to help)
