Hello all,<\/p>\n

For my current project I am doing a fluid structure interaction simulation. I know have the fluidics down and working and want to integrate the solid mechanics.<\/p>\n

However, there is one issue. I need to do an axisymmetric model due to computational time (12 months for the fluid flow without axisymmetrical boundary conditions). Fluent uses the X-axis for the axis, but Structural uses the Y axis. Is it possible to modify the base axis in one of these scenarios (preferably in Structural since I then dont have to rerun the fluidic computation).<\/p>\n

Additionally, since I work with a multicomponent system, is there a way to create bonds in a axisymmetrical model? Currently my initial contaxt tool generates the following error:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

This might be due to the meshing but the mesh keeps neglecting curvatures and creating overlap in the mesh in exactly the contact region.<\/p>\n

Thanks for any tips<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-290448","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-fsi-transient-1","topic-tag-axisymmetric","topic-tag-fluent","topic-tag-heat"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
