Transport of diluted species coupling with a previous study

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello everyone,

I'm having some trouble coupling two different transport of diluted species studies. The process is like this:

First: In study 2 Time dependent, I run TDE for one specific hour (tds1-hour1) coupled with a turbulent flow (Study 1: Stationary) and I got a solution. In Study 2 I set as "Values of variables not solved for: Study 1: Stationary". Is this process correct?

Second: In study 3 Time depedent, I want to run another TDE for another specific hour (tds2-hour2) setting as initial value the solution of the previos TDE (tds1-hour1), coupled with the same turbulent flow. I've tried to set as "Initial values of variables solved for: Study 2 Time dependent" and "Values of variables not solved for: Study 1 Stationary" , but the results I get does not show the initial values of TDE (tds1-hour1) in minut 0. Can anyone please tell me how to fix this.

Thanks to all.

Esteban

First: I use the same process for ensuring that a stationary solution is used as a source of convection. Specifically - User controlled - Solution - Study (i.e the study that gave you the stationary solution).

Second: Only thing I could suggest would be to check the selected options, perhaps you have used the Initial Expression Mehtod? Whereas the Solution Method is appropriate for both the variables solved and not solved for cases.
