How should I set the boundaries for a flow from one space to another space in a building.

here is the volume flow, a fixed data

So I will remove air from one room and take it to the other room.

I like to hear it

best regards

Hi Mark. Assuming the rooms are connected? The easiest way is to apply a flow rate on one end (the inlet) and apply an outlet boundary condition on the other end to represent a return in the system. Easiest outlet BC is a Pressure = 0 on a surface.

If this doesn't make sense, either post an image here (if you can) or a "share" file (File>save>share file)

The drawing is a sectional view of the building, it is a building in a building. like a box in a box.(see Attachment)

the air inlet from the floor and the air outlet in the wall.
the model is made in revit and read into CFD 2012, I have two mass placed. 1 in the inner sanctuary building and 1 in the entire building. these two overlap each other.

I want to simulate air flow between these two. under the influence of solar radiation and temperature outside.
How should I set my boundaries. what happens to the two mass which overlap and are set to air.

I like to hear it,

Sincerely,
mark

Hi mark.. The air needs to exit or vent somewhere. Otherwise, the space would just build infinite pressure as air is added

hi derek,

In order to get air out of the building, I have a hole at the bottom, and holes made ​​in each floor in the model. in this way, the air can leave the building.

but how do I set my boundaries for this, just the flow or by  pressure and flow.

best regards
Mark

You only want one flow/pressure bc on each. Flow rates on inlets, PRES=0 on outlets. P=0 signifies atmospheric pressure.

Thanks so far,

I will try it, and let you know if it worked.

Depending on how sensitive the info is, often if you post the *.cfz file, someone might be able to tak a quick look if you run into trouble

Hi

I let the model solve, but in the end it does not go feather. If do a 100 iterations it stops at 99 and if i
do 300 iterations if I stop it at 299.

what can this be?

Best regards,

mark
