      Hi everyone,

      I'm doing the research related to the Porous media for trees and have some issues. The porus media doesn't abosrb or block any solar radiation. As the attached files,  the wind flow seems to be reduced when meet the tree object, but the radiation temperature inside the tree object still similar to surrounding. 

      Could I ask you if you find a solution?

      Porous media isn't seen by the radiation models, the energy just sees the fluid material.

      Hi,

       

      When you said "inside tree object", do you mean the area marked in red? Can you please elaborate your question?

        Hi,

        the red dot line is represent for the tree canopy that can not be seen in the simulation results. 

        Thanks
