Next, we will name the edges accordingly so that we can specify the appropriate boundary conditions in the later step. We know the bottom edges of the geometry are the centerline of the pipe, the left edge is the inlet of the pipe, the right edge is the outlet of the pipe, top side edges are wall and the top middle edge is the heated wall section. Let's name the edges according to the diagram below. Remember to click on the Edge tab on the Fluid flow Fluent - Mesh window and then press Ctrl + mouse click to multiple select the 3 line sections that make up the center line before naming it.

Select the left edge and right click and select Create Named Selection. Enter Inlet and click OK. Under Outline, you will see the name Inlet under Named Selections.
