Problem in defining motion to the body externally !

OE11S007 · March 5, 2014, 10:09

Hi,

I am new to star-ccm+. I am doing a problem of horizontal cylinder filled with 60% of water and 40% air. I have time series for six degrees of freedom (translational and rotational) motion and velocity of the cylinder. I want to give these velocities as input to the cylinder and want to analyze sloshing of the fluid inside. How can i do that?? Plz help me in setup.
Thanks in advance!

Go under tools>motions and create a translational and rotational motion. Then apply that motion to the region of interest.
