“No Fluid” Errors

The No Fluid configuration indicates that no fluid is present in a system. It is appropriate for conduction-only heat transfer cases where fluid mechanics are not modeled.

If the system being modeled has only DEM particles, consider background fluid. Otherwise, consider other appropriate fluid model options.

This configuration has been used inappropriately if the any of the following errors occur:

  • Inlets/outlets cannot be used with this fluid model

  • Scalarfield cannot be used with this fluid model

  • Refinement meshes cannot be used with this fluid model

  • Custom variable cannot be used with this fluid model

  • Mean age cannot be used with this fluid model

  • Reactions cannot be used with this fluid model

  • Fluid model does not support two-way coupling with particles

  • Fluid model does not support lift on particles

  • Fluid model does not support pressure gradient on particles

  • Fluid model does not support mass transfer rate on particles

  • Fluid model does not support bubble pressure on particles …
