Hi,

Is it possible to calculate one part of my geometry laminar and the other part turbulent? I am using the simpleFoam solver.

I have a pipe with sudden expansion. The inflow is fully laminar and I only expect turbulence after the expansion.

Is it possible to divide my domain?
I have used blockMesh for the geometry.

Best Regards,

Gesetzt
