Creating Periodic Boundary Conditions

Steps of creating periodic zones in FLUENT are described here.

Steps

To create conformal periodic boundaries, you will use the make-periodic text command.

 

text interface commands:

grid>modify-zones>make-periodic

Periodic zone [ () ] periodiczoneID

Shadow zone [ () ] shadowzoneID

Rotational periodic? (if no, translational) [ yes ] n

Create periodic zones? [ yes ] yes

computed translation deltas: -2.000000 -2.000000
all 10 faces matched for zones 1 and 4.

zone shadowzoneID deleted
Created periodic zones.
