Hello!

I am modelling a cube with gas inside. Two sides of the cube have to be holes while the other four sides have to be walls. I have a patch for the holes and one for the walls.

In the blockMeshDict they're:

patch sides
(
(1 2 6 5)
(0 4 7 3)
)
wall walls
(
(0 1 5 4)
(5 6 7 4)
(3 7 6 2)
(0 3 2 1)
)

And in the 0/p they're:

boundaryField
{
sides
{
type zeroGradient;
}
walls
{
type zeroGradient;
}
}

Is this a false setting for walls to be walls and sides to be holes?

Your wall BC seems OK. The holes are either inlets or outlets. If inlet zeroGradient is OK for pressure in addition you need a fixedValue for the normal velocity. If outlet the pressure should be a fixedValue.

Thanks a lot! And for T is the same? And for U? I did it this way:

T)

boundaryField
{
outlet
{
type fixedValue;
value uniform 300;
}
walls
{
type zeroGradient;
}
}



U)

outlet
{
type fixedValue;
value uniform (0 0 0);
}
walls
{
type fixedValue;
value uniform (0 0 0);
}
