Define reference frame motion by an UDF Fluent

aaron_delangel · September 9, 2019, 13:55

Dear friends;

Currently, we would like to set a reference frame velocity BUT we don't want to set a constant velocity, we need to update the velocity by a VALUE calculated through an User Define Function (UDF), which is converging during the simulation.

Does anyone know how to modify the reference frame velocity so I can use variable/changing velocity that is in my UDF?

Thanks.

You will have to create UDF and have to update that in cell zone boundary condition's zone or mesh motion. There you will find option for UDF.
Cheers

ansys fluent customization manual -> mesh motion
find information, how to hook up your UDF
