How to fix - boundary condition - neutral pressure

Hi,

 

I run a simulation on an industrial project with hot process and natural convection.

 

I run like a Wind tunnel to have Wind effect with thermal analysis for the process (radiation on).

The result are not so bad now but there is rotation région on the external condition (0 Pascal).

 

The rotation is caused by thermal stratification.

 

May i have to put film coefficient to fix this issue ?   5W/m².K for 30°C 

Only on the 0 pressure boundary condition ? 

On the side and the top of the box ?

In this context, do I have to do it for the floor? 

 

What about sliding boundary (on top and sides) with activated radiation (I already had problems with this condition)

 

If it's not the right solution, I'm listening to you

 

Thank you all

Hello, 

Can you share with us your CFZ file ?

I remember having similiar issue when testing cfd19.1 for the first time after updating, when using thermal+gravity.

 

What is your software version?

 

I know that the resid heat flux flag is a must when doing natural convection heat transfer with 19.1. Otherwise no matter the P=0 outlet geometry/BC/flow solution, you will end up with huge recirculation all the time
