The Interior Wall boundary condition is used to model a wall condition on an interior boundary. It is similar to the Wall boundary condition available on exterior boundaries except that it applies on both sides (up and down) of an internal boundary. It allows discontinuities (in pressure, velocity, and temperature) across the boundary. Use the Interior Wall boundary condition to avoid meshing thin structures by applying this slip-like condition on interior curves and surfaces instead.
Select a Mechanical condition —
No slip (the default) or
Slip. See the
No Slip and
Slip conditions for further details.
Select a Thermal condition —
Isothermal (the default) or
Adiabatic. See the
Isothermal and
Adiabatic conditions for further details.
If Slip is selected for the
Mechanical condition and
Use weak constraints is enabled then the default discontinuous Galerkin (penalty like) formulation is switched to a Lagrange multiplier formulation instead. For the
No-slip and
Isothermal selections a weak formulation is used instead of a pointwise constraint.
