Is fluent have Danckwert boundary condition or we have to implement it via UDF?

      I am trying to model a reactor plug flow, where I have to implement Danckwert boundary condition which is

      So diffusive flux normal to a boundary is equal to that term on RHS: in new Ansys Fluent version you can provide a flux for species along the walls and there I am sure you can code a DEFINE_PROFILE for that.

      No, i have to put the boundary condition at the inlet.

      So you need to use then DEFINE_PROFILE anyhow.

      What does inlet diffusion actually mean in species transport model as shown in this figure? Does it actually implemented the Danckwert boundary condition as mentioned in the question?

      It does account for diffusive transport on top of convective inflow at inlet.

      Does it represent the same condition that I have asked the question> Is it mentioned anywhere in the fluent guide? Can you please tell me where I can find out. I am not able to visualise what you where saying

      What do you not understand under "it accounts for diffusive transport on top of convective .."?

      Does your statement represents the same boundary condition I have mentioned or it means something else?
