-
From the Interactions section of the action bar, click Fluid Exchange Activation
.
- Optional:
Enter a descriptive
Name.
-
Specify the Fluid exchange definitions you want to activate by
clicking them from the tree.
-
Select Blockage to consider vent and leakage area obstruction by
contacted surfaces.
-
Select Outflow only to simulate flow from the first fluid cavity
to the second fluid cavity only (or from the fluid cavity to the environment only), or
clear this option to simulate fluid flow in both directions.
-
Specify the Leakage area ratio, which is the ratio of the actual
surface area over the initial surface area at which you want the fluid to leak.
This real value should be positive and greater than or equal to one. The effective
surface area used for the fluid exchange is the difference between the actual area of the
surface and the area of the surface at the beginning of step.
-
Optional: Specify an Amplitude to vary the magnitude
of the fluid exchange as the step proceeds.
The amplitude curve defines the magnitude of the fluid exchange during the step.

Click OK.
