Hi Guys,
Quick Questions... I am analysing a flow in a windtunnel - I don't know the Inlet Velocity but what I do know is a reference velocity at certain distance from the Inlet. Now - Is it possible to set this reference value in Fluent? So when I come to look at the Mean Velocity Profile at this reference value - The Local velocity is around 10m/s At the moment - I just set 10m/s at the Inlet and I get local velocity of 10.5m/s at my reference station. I need this to be 10m/s. I could just play with the Inlet velocities say change it to 9.5m/s or something but there has to be a easier way... Secondly, I am trying to use symmetry. I am just modelling Wind Tunnel and top and bottom effects at the wall will be the same so I tried to use symmetry condition on my mesh but I am not getting it right... Your help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance. |
