Introductory FLUENT Training-User-Defined Functions

A brief introduction to FLUENT user-defined functions
Overview of FLUENT Data Structure and Macros
Two Examples
Where to get more information and help

UDF Support
What is a User Defined Function?
A UDF is a function (programmed by the user) written in C which can be dynamically linked with the FLUENT solver.
Standard C functions
Trigonometric, exponential, control blocks, do-loops, file i/o, etc.
Pre-Defined Macros 
Allows access to field variable, material property, and cell geometry data and many utilities


Why program UDFs?
Standard interface cannot be programmed to anticipate all needs:
Customization of boundary conditions, source terms, reaction rates, material properties, etc.
Customization of physical models
User-supplied model equations
Adjust functions (once per iteration)
Execute on Demand functions
Solution Initialization
