UDF for variable inlet velocity

TheForumLord · June 11, 2014, 10:34

Dear experts,

What should i write in my UDF in order to make an inlet velocity profile be variable? (for example, instead of taking a uniform entry velocity, to take a parabolic profile, such as the fully-developed Poiseuille profile)

Thanks in advance

go see 2.3.18 DEFINE_PROFILE in the Fluent UDF manual. I think it's what you are looking for.

Thanks a lot Crow, but how can I access the Fluent manual? Is there any link to it?

Thanks again

If you have Fluent on your computer, the Fluent help should also be on your computer. Just press the "F1" key when you are in Fluent.
