I simulated the flow over a sphere. Now I would like to make the sphere rotating like a tennis ball. Is there any predefined boundary condition to simulate this? I would just to impose a constant tangential velocity to the sphere patch and anything would be ok,
thanks, bye, Francesco |

v1.6 gives a new boundary condition named rotatingWallVelocity.
Also you can just create an application which calculates the velocity component for each point if you're on v1.5 |

HI how you did rotation to shere by using tangential velocity condition.. please give me hint as i plan to use rotating domain in CFX11 but it uses only fluid domain to be rotating...
Any hint for the same |

Sorry,
I abandonend the problem for now even if I am still interseted in imposing rotatingWallVelocity boundary conditions... sorry for late, Francesco |
