Tracking/Modifying Cell Zones

November 6, 2000, 19:20

I'm using Fluent 5.x (5.4) and I'd like to be able to acess/modify the fluid zone to which a particular cell belongs using a UDF. Does anybody know:

1. how to find out to which cell zone a particular cell belongs

2. how to change which cell zone a particular cell belongs to.

Many thanks,

Regards

Hi Gregg, in pp 26, section 2.9.5 of the UDF users manual there is a nice example in which it is found if a cell is in a porous media.

Maybe that helps.
