Solver Control Settings for the behavior of the CFX-5 solver Maximum number of timesteps Timestep selection Transient timestep control for results output Convergence criteria Order of differencing scheme Advanced Options
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Simulation of fluid flow, heat transfer and mass transfer processes CFD involves the numerical solution of the governing equations Mass continuity
Domains represent 3D regions where governing equations are solved Domains can be comprised of more than one solid joined together Domains can also contain internal 3D regions Cutouts- solid obstacles to flow Sub -domains- Fluid sub-domains: volumetric sources/sinks of mass. heat
CEL is an interpreted, declarative language which enables users to enhance simulations without recourse to external fortran routines. It uses mathematical expressions for physical quantities as opposed to using fixed values. Access to CFX-5 internal variables (including solution variables)
