Hi Saif,

Try looking for "natural" or "natural convection." This should do the trick.

Hi Saiful,

There is not really a user manual specifically for natural ventilation. Rather the user manual supplied with the product has specifications intended as best practices. So you will have...

Once you know that you have a pressure stratification you can use linear regression to determine the actual value of the pressure at the upper pressure boundary. Use this value instead of the zero...

Best way to check if you have pressure stratification is to make a vertical isoline outside the domain of interest, i.e. outside the main flow, and then plot pressure along that line. If you don't...

Hi,

At the moment I am not working on CFD simulations as other things are occupying my time. Did you check if you have a pressure stratification present in the medium?

Hi,

Well, I to experimented with different domain sizes but on a trial and error bases to see what happens. So I cannot help you much with that. However, I do know people who extended their domain...

Hi,

My suggestion is first to check if you have a pressure stratification inside your domain, i.e. check if pressure is changing with hight. In principle it should not as both inlets and outlets...

I believe I did not explained myself well. I was not referring to the original (gravity induced) pressure, rho*g*h, but to the residual pressure in the simulations. My simulations indicated that the...

In actual fact I don't know how the problem arises and I could not think of a way of investigating the issue.

Regarding the sponge layer, this is obtained by creating a layer between the boundary...

Well back flow is a common issue with boundary conditions and there are a number of ways to deal with this. One of them is to set up a "sponge layer" between the boundary and the domain of interest...

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. However, I believe I did not explain myself very well. In actual fact, from the user manual, Fluent uses the redefined pressure,

p' = p - rho*g*h

Fluent natural ventilation pressure boundary condition

Hi,

I am modelling natural ventilation from a point source in an open space using Fluent with the Boussinesq approximation. The model includes pressure inlets at the bottom and at the sides and a...
