Tip
If you are unsure of which inlet zone corresponds to the cold inlet, you can use
the mouse to probe for mesh information in the graphics window. If you click the
right mouse button with the pointer on any node in the mesh, information about
the associated zone will be displayed in the ANSYS FLUENT console, including the
name of the zone. The zone you probed will be automatically selected from the
Zone selection list in the Boundary Conditions task page.
Alternatively, you can click the probe button ( ) in the graphics toolbar and click
the left mouse button on any node. This feature is especially useful when you
have several zones of the same type and you want to distinguish between them
quickly. The information will be displayed in the console.
