Hi Rob,

 

Thanks for replying! The objective of the model is to simulate the heat exchanger (HEX) with a gyroid core, the whole HEX is shown below. 

I heard Fluent only allows one set of periodic BC, but I do find a couple of papers stating that they are able to set up the periodic BCs for similar cases with solid and fluid domains, I also attached a screenshot of that. 

Could you please help to find out how to implement that?
