How To Input Mass Sources to Simulate Adsorption?

March 1, 2006, 07:25

Hi Everybody

I'm working in a cilinder, wich i've defined as a porous zone. In this work, i've an 2D axisymetric problem, with a mass flow inlet, an outflow,and the wall of the cylinder described as "wall". I've defined the 2D face as a porous zone. Despite having a very simple geometry, I've a problem - I've a mass flow inlet of hydrogen, and I want to program a source equation based on the local values of the porous matrix in my UDF, to simulate the adsorption of this specie, but i'm not reaching the way to do that. Can anybody help me?

Thanks Carlos V.

Hello,
What about your adssorption problem ? please help me if youn resolved it.
Thanks a lot

hai
if its surface adsorption, use the rate of adsorption as species source sink
