Issue running simulation on CAD model

Jagjourdan · February 14, 2017, 12:24

Hi all,

I'm a final year student studying aerospace engineering and for my project I need to run a simulation on fluid flow on a model I have created in Catia.

The video I was using as a tutorial for this can be seen below:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MYVeklXDh4

I've been able to follow every step of the video in terms of using a box to simulate a wind tunnel however I seem to have a problem towards the end of the video where a scalar function is selected. I have started over again several times and I never seem to be able to get velocity and pressure as one of the functions to use to obtain values on for the report of my results.

If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.

If pressure and velocity are not available as functions then your physics selection is incomplete. Look at your physics continua.
