Is it a proper choice to initialize '' solid face'' in FLUENT.

oozcan · September 19, 2016, 06:05

Hi,

I am working on temperature distribution of some mould equipments.

I need to give some initial conditions for a cell zone in fluid and a face of solid zone.But I couldnt do it.

I have patched fluid cell zone by using initialization tab. But a face of solid one has not been done inspite of registering in adapt (adapt>boundary>mark)

Then I have defined that a face of solid one was chosen as ''standart initialization''.

Is it good/proper one?

Kind Regards,

Boundary conditions are applied to faces. It is improper to initialize a face.
