CFX Fluid Domain Movement

March 21, 2007, 13:34

I'm performing a conjugate heat transfer analysis in CFX with a fluid and solid. I would like to perform a transient analysis where the fluid domain moves over the solid domain at a constant velocity. Is there a way to do this in CFX? Any help is greatly appreciated.

thanks, greg

Can you be more spefic about what you mean by fluid domain and solid domain? Their shapes? If you want to do moving boundary analysis, you have to apply the transient boundary conditions by defining functions in CFX. I think this is what you have to do for your fluid domain now.
