  Hello.
  I am currently working on drying fruits using Ansys Fluent. However I still need guiding on the topic. My question is when I add a solid material from the database, in cellzone or boundary conditions seems like I cannot use the solid material. Can you please explain it ? I am right now trying to make a multiphase model on the drying process.
  Thanks in advance, kind regards.

  Hello:
  Under cell zone, have you changed the type to Solid? Once you do that, you should be able to use the solid material you added.

  To add, if it's a solid then you can only model heat transfer. If you're drying something you may want to look at porous media.
