Hi Guys,
I am modelling a building block ( a room ) with Air inside for Natural Convection. I wonder If anyone knows how can I consider the impcat of Air humidity in the model? Cheers, |

Hi,
You need to find a database, that contains all relevant physical properties of air as a function of humidity. Then, you can put these values into fluent (Materials->Fluid->Air->....). You will need viskosity, specific heat capacity, density, thermal conductivity and whatever your model needs. |

I think you should use Species to model the humidity in the air. Knowing mass fraction of water-vapor at room and solving set of N-S equations plus an additional equation for water-vapor.
Goodluck |
