Steps of creating periodic zones in FLUENT are described here.
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.
