Create Zones in Fluent

September 20, 2007, 02:16

I made the whole flow domain in Gambit to be a single zone. Is it possible to subdivide this zone within Fluent? I have run the analysis, adaptation etc. and don't want to go back to Gambit again.

Sorry to bring you bad news ...but you can't separate fluid zones in fluent. It needs to be done in Gambit.

You can "MARK" (NOT adapt) the zone you want in the adapt menu and then got to grid>separate>cells and use the marker to separate the cells. Make sure to save your work before doing this. I have seen it crashed sometimes.
