Reply To: Reaction Boundary Condition for SOEC Modeling

Hello Aleksey,

I just have this question if you can kindly answer it, my SOEC design has the same porous air/steam flow channel and current collectors means anodic CC and steam flow channel and cathodic CC and air flow channels are specified the same and not as dfferent layers and materials. Now the issue I am facing is that I have followed each and everything as per the ANSYS tutorials on SOFC and user and theory guide, SOFC mixture is default even for the air flow channel when I specify the porous fluid material air the FLUENT gives SIGSEGV error and abruptly shuts down, as per the Ansys User guide (pg. 1345) aren't we supposed to define that specific flid that flows through that porous channel.

Secondly in the tutorial that I am following it says that only those sources should be enabled that flows through that domain lke O2 is disabled for steam flow channel but in my case all species sources like h2o, h2 and o2 sources are enbled as default and there is no source enbled for electric potential.
