boundary condition for zerothickness surface :(
Hi Foamers,
sorry for restarting the thread again. I need to implement baffles in my case. i have some basic question can some one please help me. I m having a zero thickness surface in my geometry and i have read a lot of posts regarding how to implement baffles which helped me create a mesh with baffles in snappyHexMesh. (thanks to the changes in snappyhexmesh) code in snappyHexmesh, refinementsurfaces Code:
table and i have checked in the polymesh/boundary folder two boundaries are created of type wall. Code:
table 1.How can i define B.C to these patches like U,P,K,epsilon 2. do i have to make a folder for "createbafflesDict" to specify boundary conditions or can i specify B.C like for other patches? 3. last and much important question is can i spesify different boundary conditions for the master and slave patch similar to twosidedwall in fluent? I have looked in to couple of tutorials but could not get a clear answer. I m using OF 2.3.0 I m banging my head on the wall. could someone please help me.

boundary condition for zerothickness surface :(
Hi Foamers,
I have a case with zero thickness sucface inside my domain. I innitially thought that i need to have createBafflesDict then i came to know that i can create baffles using STL files in the snappyHexMesh. thanks to SHM. Now i m kind of stuck trying to set booundary conditions for the master and slave patches ,where to specify the B.C? can somebody please help me. Code:
// Which of the steps to run I have looked into some tutorials but each tutorials has a different style of implementing the baffles. so i could not able to find it myself. I m desperate for help. :( Thank you , regards, Naresh |
Quick answer: Study the tutorial cases "compressible/rhoPimpleDyMFoam/annularThermalMixer" and "incompressible/pimpleFoam/TJunctionFan".

Dear Bruno,
Thank you for your reply. I will check it out. Regards, Naresh Yathuru |
Hello foamers,
I took me a while to update this post. I was not successful so I tried a very simple geometry of a box with a zero thickness surface inside. i created the geometry in salome.Exported geometry as stl files and meshed in snappyHexMesh. I used the "facetype baffles" in snappy hex mesh to create baffle. I have the following questions: 1. After meshing it shows the master and slave boundary in polymesh/boundary files. how to set boundary conditions for these surfaces in 0 folder? Am I missing something. There is no tutorials for the method where snappyhexmesh is used to create baffles. I have tried the tutorials Tjunctionfan and thermal baffles tutorials but they use createbafflesDict. but I want to generate baffles for the geometry stl file i created in Salome. When I triedto use my stl files in createbafflesdict there was snapping problem. I created stairscasestep mesh. Could someone through some light. I m stuck at this point. I m using OpenFoam 2.3.0 regards, Naresh |
