fluent 2D axisymmetric with swirl simulation with porous media

user0314 · December 5, 2011, 10:09

I have a 2D axisymmetric problem with swirl in FLUENT. I want to model a porous media.

In the 'Cell Zone Conditions' tab, where I specify the porous zone, it lists 'Direction 1 vector' where 'x' is the default. Is 'y' automatically the 'Direction 2 vector', and 'z' the 'Direction 3 vector'?

I'm not sure because you can only specify the 'Direction 1 vector', whereas in a 3D simulation you specify 'Direction 1 vector' and 'Direction 2 vector'.

Thanks.
