Once the geometry of the control domain is defined, we have to proceed with setting the boundary conditions of the problem (access the Conditions menu as shown in previous examples). The conditions to be applied in this example are:
The Velocity Field condition is used to fix the velocity in a surface to the velocity field given in the Data > Initial Data >RANSOL menu. For this example, this condition is going to be applied to the surfaces of the problem geometry. In our case, all the velocity components have to be fixed (i.e. mark Fix_Initial_X and Fix_Initial_Y). Then, the velocity will be fixed to its initial value and will remain constant during the simulation process.
The Fix Concentration condition is used to fix the concentration in a surface to the velocity field given in the Data > Initial Data >ADVECT menu.This condition is going to be applied to the inlet lines of the problem in order to fix the value of the concentration of species at the given value. Note that the value of the concentration of every species should be prescribed at every inlet boundary.
The Value field is the value of the concentration of the
species (
This
condition has to be applied twice to the two inlet lines (joined in the
bottom-left corner). Once, with the Species Name field set to Species1
and the second
Finally, Figure 113 gives an overview of the conditions and properties assigned.
