My goal is to implement a source term (e.g: energy) in a defined area of my field of computing, I have a simple 2D configudation (100 mesh along the X axis and 100 mesh along the Y axis) and I want to inject a source term (ie: source = 10000W/m3) in a grid of coordinates (X =50 and Y = 50) and I can not specify in my UDF cell in which I would inject my source term..anyone can help me

I would create another plane just in the middle of your area. Hence, for this small area you can apply the source term. (I've never tried in 2D so far, but in 3D it works that way.)

Thanks for your help,
but I think it should not market, because the goal is to inject the source terms in several mesh (hundreds of cells)..

normally i want use C_CENTROID(x,c,t) ... but I dont know how to define the coordinates of my area in my UDF

in my UDF (DEFINE_SOURCE (energy_source, c, t, ..) how I will define the coordinates of my cell (X=50, Y=50) ?Écouter

Hiya,

I think if I understand you correctly, you want to add a source term but only in a certain area of your domain.

You can access the cell centre using C_CENTROID(x,c,t), see
http://my.fit.edu/itresources/manual...udf/node90.htm

this will give you P (x,y,z). Then if this point is inside the area you want the source to be active you can define your source term, if not set the source term to zero.

Hope this helps
