I am having some issues creating some surfaces in Fluent that are intended to be internal surfaces that permit flow through them so I can monitor temperature, pressure, mass flow etc.<\/p>\n

I created these surfaces in Discovery and they are a circular pattern that has 6 total surfaces. The circular pattern therefore has 6 component parts inside it and each component part holds a surface. The 6 surfaces are called vane-1-in, vane-1-out, vane-2-in, vane-2-in, vane-2-out, vane-3-in, and vane-3-out. I used performed shared topology in Discovery and completed the geometry pre-check successfully with no errors. I then created a named selection for each surface so there are 6 named selections. <\/p>\n

I imported the geometry into Ansys fluent watertight mesh workflow and checked all my labels while creating local sizings. As you can see in the picture below, vane-1-in, vane-1-out, and vane-2-in all have an associated label and rolling over them in the workflow highlights the correct surface. Vane-2-out was skipped and the 2 surfaces for vane-3 are bundled into vane-3-in:vane-3-out. Also, my entire model is highlighted when I roll my mouse over this surface.<\/p>\n

When I look at the zone list, there is a zone for origin-vane-1-in, origin-vane-1-out, origin-vane-2-in, and the other 3 surfaces are bundled into origin-vane-2-out:vane-3-in:vane-3-out.<\/p>\n

Another weird thing is if I don’t include the vane 3 surfaces (just vane 1 and vane 2) everything works as intended meaning I have a separate label for the 4 surfaces.<\/p>\n

I really need help with this because my model is actually going to have 20 inlets and outlets (40 surfaces total).\"\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-358704","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-fluent-cfd-ansys-1","topic-tag-fluent","topic-tag-mesh","topic-tag-meshing","topic-tag-TechSupport-1","topic-tag-technical-support-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["59720","13659"],"_bbp_author_ip":["96.7.218.215"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["1812"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["358704"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["13659","59720"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["9"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["359085"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["359085"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-03-26 15:00:58"]},"test":"gregory-harringtonkratosdefense-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/358704","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/358704\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=358704"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
