Doubt regarding modelling and model is not reflecting in fluent meshing, help in diagnosing this
Guys,
Right now I have geometry like below,
The above one is fluid region modelled with pipe+screen.
So right from model shown first, how to start from there to get above one?
Pipe diameter is 50mm.
I tried drawing sketch of circle 56mm diameter and extruding it. And drew a circle of 700mm diameter and extruded. Then I used boolean subtract for these volumes, so that I get void between pipe and big cylinder(note this big cylinder constitutes open ambient fluid). Then I merged all bodies into one fluid body.
But I noticed that screen gaps in the side got absorbed or merged somewhere, it was not showing in meshing tab. See below,
In section view,
But in meshing,
See above, those small rectangle in side is filled with fluid, I dont want this. In origin wall, it is showing those small rectangle in side indicated by yellow, I dont know what has happened? But if you zoom, fluid is filled there.
Why entire fluid is getting selected. I want to select only screen faces for doing separate face sizing and wants to apply inflation on those faces.
So the major problem is in section view of design modeller, I was able to see screen gaps nicely but once I go to meshing , I cant select those screen faces only, I dont want it to be merged with wall or pipe. I dont know whether this issue has occured due to merging or some other wrong operations.
So is there any other method to do this keeping in mind to merge all bodies to have one fluid body and screen gaps should be visible nicely. Please let me know, thanks in advance.
