Setting Boundary Types
Certain boundary types affect the volume mesh. In this tutorial, you have a velocity inlet, pressure outlet, and symmetry boundaries that do not require prism layers. Simcenter STAR-CCM+ does not grow prism layers on these boundaries by default .
To set the boundary types:
- Expand the node.
-
Set the following properties:
Node Property Setting Bounding box.Far Field Type Symmetry Plane Bounding Box.Symmetry Plane Type Symmetry Plane Bounding Box.Inlet Type Velocity Inlet Bounding Box.Outlet Type Pressure Outlet
