Good mornig, my name is Bernardo and I am a mechanical engineering student at UFF in Brazil. I’m a member of my university’s formula SAE team and I’m the cooling system’s responsible. So, I’m trying to simulate our heat exchanger using the conjugate heat transfer method. But when i generate the mes…

Just say Yes, use mesh as domain and you should be good to go… (I think), otherwise please share your project link…

Hi Dale, here’s the project link. What is happening is, after I choose to use the mesh as the domain, my heat exchanger disappears. Thank you for your attention.

Hi @berna1549 ! You have to paste the link into your post - please keep this in mind for future posts. Makes things so much easier, thanks! :slight_smile: Jousef

Hi @berna1549 Just took a look at your project and I found some issues with the mesh settings and the geometry. The radiator fins have a thickness of around 1e-4m and the current mesh setting cannot capture these features. Thus what you are getting is a mesh of extremely poor quality. [radiato…

Thank you for your attention, Ani.
This is my first simulation project, so I’m still learning. I’ll check the reference and as you said, thanks.
