[ICEM] sloshing tank mesh

IvanRehder · May 28, 2013, 03:57

Hello
I am new here at the forum and new in CFX and Icem CFD
I was trying to make a sloshing simulation for my gas tank using the tutorials that come with CFX. But I cannot open the tutorial on the CFX, i only have them on .pdf.
I would like to know if someone could help me to make a mesh for my tank.
It is a cube with 50 mm
Need to be hollow?
In which parts should I divide it?
This case i think it does not need any inlet or outlet boundaries
Any extra info or hint I should know?

Help please. Can anyone tell me how to create two fluids in a tank?
I can only create one type of fluid

if you are using unstructured, you have to add the blocks to the fluid interested in... in unstructured, create two bodies

Ali there is a correction

if you are using "Structured", you have to add the blocks to the fluid interested in...

Thank you. I have modeled three bodies in CFX: tank, water and air. but when I add water property, ownership of the air is changed to water.
Help.

which is the equation of oscillation to simulate the movement of water in a tank in CFX.
Some tutorial please

you might ask these question in the CFX section of the forum, you will get better help there...
