Add 2 Different Fluid in Different Container

propbala03 · January 22, 2013, 11:51

Dear all,

I am working in a problem that 2 cylinders are separated by some distance with different fluids (and different level also) undergoing acceleration and rates together. I am unable to add 2 different fluid in 2 cylinder and level also. Please someone help me out to solve this prob.

If they are not connected you rarely need to simulate them together, so just reduce the domain to model each container.

If they are connected or need to be simulated together for some other reason you can use the scalar model to modify the fluid properties in one container.
