Using real gas models in Fluent

neville · August 10, 2011, 10:29

Hi,
I am trying to simulate fluid flows in fluent for which I need to have real gas properties. I have tried using the nist real gas model available in Fluent which uses the REPROP v7 library.
My problem includes wall heat flux as a BC, which the Fluent manual says cannot be specified as a boundary condition in any real gas model.

Please assist me on how do I circumvent this problem and use the real gas model in my problem.

Thanks

It is possible to apply heat flux at the wall as boundary conditions for any case..also for real gas model.
