The domain would be about 2 m by 0.5 m and the bed itself would be around 1 m by 0.5 m, the question I am partially trying to answer is how much of an impact the mussel pumping has on the hydrodynamics and mixing processes. Each mussel outlet would have a velocity of around 1-2 cm\/s and I am looking at very slow (less than 5 cm\/s) ambient flows. I am looking for guidance as to how I can do this, thank you!<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/08\/23-08-2024-1724423098-Screenshot 2024-05-31 102855.png\" alt=\"\" \/>&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-380015","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-fluent-ansys-1","topic-tag-fsi-transient-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["260782","199"],"_bbp_author_ip":["199.111.224.125"],"_btv_view_count":["167"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["380015"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","260782"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["7"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["380034"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["380034"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-08-23 15:36:05"]},"test":"qnp5rgvirginia-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/380015","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\/380015\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=380015"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
