r/STAR_CCM

Hello! I’m a beginner in CFD and I’m trying to simulate the cooling of a battery stack with cylindrical cells, but I’m having some trouble extracting the air volume, especially around the contacts and interfaces.

I extract the air volume using the Cavity operation in SolidWorks and then use Imprint in Star-CCM+. I already did this before with another battery setup and it worked fine, but now I’m working with a very similar layout and, when I define the regions, the interfaces don’t show the CHT condition.

If anyone has any advice on the best or most optimal way to do this, I’d really appreciate it!
