Hi everyone
I modeled a flume with wave generator paddle which has the piston motion movement (sinusoidal). The problem is I can't find the force of generated waves acting on the paddle? (I also tried an option named (FSI- fluid solid interaction) that supposed to find out forces, but when the moving object is "prescribed motion" selected it automatically turned off) |

From my understanding, you want to know how much the paddle exert the pressure during generating the wave.
If this is true, all u need to do is go to: Model setup > Meshing & geometry > Geometry window > Component properties> output > Tick the 'Presssure and Shear force Output' This result for 'Presssure and Shear force Output' can only be view by using flowsight. Hope this help. |
