Hello, I am simulating the cooling of chestnut bins in a cold room using ANSYS Fluent. I created the geometry in SpaceClaim and meshed it using Fluent Meshing. I defined a named selection to group all bin walls into a single boundary, but in Fluent each wall appears as a separate walls.

I had some difficulty creating this topic, so I will provide the full details and screenshots in a follow-up post.

Thank you for your help

If each fluid/solid zone has it's own name because you didn't create NS for those too it'll do that. In SC create a NS for all of the boxes and similarly the fluid zones. If you need each box to have it's own heat source or monitor that's fine, but because you'd label each box (and the single NS for the fluid) you'll get the bounding faces for each box as a single pair for wall & shadow ID.
