Boundaries

Mesh boundaries are used to define the physical and mathematical conditions at the edges of the computational domain.

Flow360 imports boundary names directly from the mesh input file and they cannot be changed.

Boundaries for a volume mesh exist within their parent zones.

Types of boundary conditions

Boundaries can be assigned one of the following Boundary conditions:

• Wall
• Freestream
• Inflow
• Outflow
• Periodic
• Symmetry
• Slip wall
• Interface (assigned automaticaly)

Boundaries in outputs

When assigning Surface output or Surface probe output, boundaries for which the output fields will be computed, have to be specified.
