Leak Detection in StarCCM

Dear Friends,

Can anyone help me how to detect the source of leak in StarCCM, suppose if an error pops out.

Thanks

Hi vignesh_n,

under Geometry->Operations you can create a Surface Wrapper. Put in the parts you want to perform the leak detection. Right click on Surface Wrapper->Run Leak Detection (open scene before doing it). Than you can select a source point and multiple target points and perform the detection.
Then you should see the path between the points (if there is one). Also see the output window which is quite useful sometimes ;-)

Regards,
Hendrik
