CFD Boundary Conditions

CUBIT can export models to the Fluent mesh format and CNGS unstructured mesh format for CFD analysis. CUBIT also supports defining the below CFD boundary conditions. Only the region on which the BC acts can be defined in CUBIT. The data associated with each boundary condition (pressure, velocity, mass values, etc.) is not defined within CUBIT and must be assigned using a CFD model editor, such as Fluent.

create cfd_bc [id] {axis|exhaustfan|fan|inletvent|intakefan|interface| interior|massflowinlet|outflow|outletvent|periodic|periodicshadow| porousjump|pressurefarfield|pressureinlet|pressureoutlet|radiator| supersonicinflow|supersonicoutflow|symmetry|velocityinlet|wall} [name <'name'>] [{add|on} {sideset|surface} <entity_list>

The following shows the commands for modifying, deleting, and lising CFD boundary conditions.

modify cfd_bc [id] [name <'name'>] [{add|remove} {sideset|surface} <entity_list>

delete cfd_bc {<ids>|'<string>'}

list cfd_bc {<ids>}
