We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

You can combine the porous media with the baffles. So, the fluid has a resistance to flow to account for the tubes but the baffles are actually modelled in the geometry. If you want both sides of the system (shell & tube side) you may need to model the whole lot, or a cut down section if there are any symmetry planes to take advantage of.Â
