Hi all,
I have to do a Fluid-Structure Interaction study for which I need to couple FLUENT and Transient Structural via System Coupling. The fluid domain need to have a remeshing to be defined (As the deformations are high Smoothing methods will not work). I have used tetrahedral meshing to start with but can use hexahedral meshing also. My geometry is shown in the image attached. Can anyone help me which all domain I have to set as deforming.

The left end is the inlet, right most end outlet and the middle obstruction is actually the Structural part. The walls of the structural part has to be defined as System Coupling.
Kindly help me.

Regards,
M J Mahesh

hi
mahesh
i am doing the same thing here and looking for dynamic meshing in fluent, i have seen ansys help but not much clear.
i am also working on the fsi problem,
if you find any solution please inform me too
thanx

Have a look at tutorial titled 'Oscillating Plate with Two-Way Fluid-Structure Interaction'. It resembles to what you want to do.

Is this tutorial is available with in fluent itself or do i need to search??
i if you have please send in zip or pdf format on chirag.palan@gmail.com
thanx in advance
