Is it possible to fix values of species at some domains where I know the species values? I’m trying to save computational cost.

      Selected equations can be disabled globally using an Expert Parameter, however there is no option to disable the solving of equations on a per domain basis. If the intention is fix a variable value (e.g. velocity), a source term can be added to its equation. This will not result in solution speedup, however. For example, the following momentum source can be used to achieve a velocity [uspec,vspec,wspec] within a given subdomain : MOMENTUM SOURCE: Momentum Source X Component = -C*(u-uspec) Momentum Source Y Component = -C*(v-vspec) Momentum Source Z Component = -C*(w-wspec) Momentum Source Coefficient = -C END A similar approach can be used for other solution equations, such as AV’s. The idea behind this approach is that we create a source term with a very large, negative source coefficient. This allows it to dominate the equation and force the value of the dependent variable to the specified value.
