Hi,<\/p>\n

I’m trying to do a multiphase VOF model with phase 1 as air and phase 2 as CO2 in a hospital room. I want to show how infected particles flow from a patient’s mouth. I have 3 inlets, 3 outlets, 3 lighting fixtures and 3 manikins out of which one of them is the infected patient. The mouth of the patient is considered as a velocity inlet with a magnitude of 0.9 m\/s and direction in +Y direction (need to show it flowing outwards from the mouth). The inlet has a velocity of 3 m\/s. The volume fraction of the mouth is taken as 1 and for the inlet as 0.<\/p>\n

However, after initilializing the contours of volume fraction gives a min and max range of 0 and nothing is seen. The velocity seems to be working though. I checked the vector contour to see if the flow of co2 from the mouth is in the right direction and it is flowing outwards, but the volume fraction does not seem to be computed. Please let me know how I can resolve this issue urgently!!<\/p>\n
