Physics Setup

 

  • Open Fluent from Solution
  • If the Mesh Interfaces are gone, recreate them the same was done in Part 1
  • Check that the Boundary Conditions were correctly copied
  • Under "General", change the Solver to Transient.
  • Under Cell-Zone Conditions...
    • Highlight "inner". Click Edit. Copy to Mesh Motion. Check that everything has been transfered
    • Do the same thing for the other 3 blades


Go to Step 5: Numerical Solution

Go to all FLUENT Learning Modules
