Hi all,
Basically, I am trying to simulate a flow tank where the outflow is pumped back into the tank via eight inlets (front1,front2,back1,back2,right1,right2,left1,lef t2). I am trying to write a UDF such that the average temperature of the outflow is the same as the temperature of each of the eight inlets. My UDF (modified from an existing code) is listed:

#include "udf.h"
/* Mean temperature at outlet is calculated */
DEFINE_ADJUST(mean_outlet_temp, domain)
{
#if !RP_HOST /* either serial or compute node process is involved */
face_t f;
real sum_temp=0.0;
int nfaces=0, i;
int ID_out = 67; //out
int ID_back1 = 65; //back1
int ID_back2 = 66; //back2
int ID_front1 = 59; //front1
int ID_front2 = 60; //front2
int ID_left1 = 63; //left1
int ID_left2 = 64; //left2
int ID_right1 = 61; //right1
int ID_right2 = 62; //right2
/* Determination of zone IDs */
Thread *thread_out = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_out);
Thread *thread_back1 = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_back1);
Thread *thread_back2 = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_back2);
Thread *thread_front1 = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_front1);
Thread *thread_front2 = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_front2);
Thread *thread_left1 = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_left1);
Thread *thread_left2 = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_left2);
Thread *thread_right1 = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_right1);
Thread *thread_right2 = Lookup_Thread(domain, ID_right2);

/* Calculation of average outflow temperature and sending to other nodes. */
/* The thread on which the average temperature is calculated is on node zero. */

if(I_AM_NODE_ZERO_P)
{
begin_f_loop(f,thread_out)
{
nfaces = nfaces + 1;
sum_temp = sum_temp + F_T(f,thread_out);
}
end_f_loop(f,thread_out)

sum_temp = sum_temp/nfaces;

/* Message("Node %d : Average exit temperature = %f\n", myid, sum_temp); */
compute_node_loop_not_zero(i)

{
PRF_CSEND_DOUBLE(i, &sum_temp, 1, myid);
}
}
/* Reception of average temperature from node zero */
if(! I_AM_NODE_ZERO_P)
{
PRF_CRECV_DOUBLE(0, &sum_temp, 1, 0);
/* Message("Node %d : Average exit temperature = %f\n", myid, sum_temp); */
}
/* User defined memory of thread_back1 are filled with sum_temp */

/* User defined memory of thread_back2 are filled with sum_temp */
begin_f_loop(f, thread_back2)

/* User defined memory of thread_front1 are filled with sum_temp */

begin_f_loop(f, thread_front2)

I tried compiling this but I have not been able to get the compilation successful message mentioned in the fluent manual. I am running parallel in local machine (Win64) and not in a cluster of machines. Also, I am using FLUENT v12.

It may be possible that the error is due to the link between Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and FLUENT but I want to make sure the code is correct before I go reinstalling Visual Studio.

If anyone can help, I will be very grateful.

Thank you.
