[ICEM] Problem with zones/bocos exporting ICEM model to Fluent

hectordiaz · May 3, 2011, 04:27

Hello,

First of all, I am very new in the CFD world. I have started working on my Master Thesis and I need to simulate a 2D combustion chamber.

In my model, I have 5 inlets represented by edges. I have created parts, meshed the model and assigned them boundary conditions. The problem is that once I export the model to Fluent, I can't find this parts I need to introduce the boundary conditions.

I have searched the forum and I found a few posts with a similar problem but mine seems not to work. I think I am following all the right steps and I can't find what I am doing wrong.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

PS Sorry if I can't explain myself properly, the CFD is new for me plus my English is not very good.

Ok, I think it is fixed. I had to manually associate the mesh around the elements I wanted and now I can see them in fluent.
