16.2. Using the Eulerian Wall Film Model with Non-Conformal Interfaces

With beta features enabled (as described in Introduction), the Eulerian wall film (EWF) model can be used on meshes with non-conformal interfaces (NCI) when you issue the following text command:

define/models/eulerian-wallfilm/enable-film-nci-support? [No] Yes

This text command is available only if non-conformal interfaces exist in the domain.

Note the following limitations for using the EWF model with NCI:

  • The following types of interfaces are not supported with the EWF model:

    • Periodic type fluid-fluid non-conformal interfaces

    • Moving non-conformal interfaces

  • A non-overlapping wall boundary of an interface cannot be assigned as a film wall
