How to set wind tuunel Boundary Condtions?
 
Hi ,

I have a problem in which a heater is on leading edge of an airfoil, placed in wind tunnel. Air is inside the tunnel at -5C. And water spray by using atomizer is also there.

This airfoil is placed inside the wind tunnel.I want to setup the boundary conditions. I took,

1. Velocity inlet (bcoz i know the initial velocity which is constant in entire process)
2. Outflow
3. The bottom and top wall (wall with zero shear)

I want to know what could be the boundary conditions for top and bottom walls of Wind tunnel?:confused:


It is very urgent.

Many Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Saima

1. 2D or 3D ?
2. what's your Turbulence model ?
3. Slip wall or symmetry plane is first and second choice I think.

It is 2D. I m using (VOF+Solidification) , k-eps (2-eq) model.

I didn't took symmetry bcoz heater is not symmetric.

I draw whole airfoil.
I have not use fluent b4 and it is my 6-credit project.

Please help me.
