  Hi. I have a question, what are the possibilities to simulate a source of humidity in ansys? I use "species transport" to simulate the humid air in the room. Now I would like to simulate the moisture production of people. My air humidity is 65% and I would like to simulate the moisture production of 10 people in 1 hour and see how the humidity in the room changes. However, I am wondering about the available options. I was thinking of "extra" inlets that would be turned on and off for an hour, but that would require a lot of simulations, manually controlled. Can you put some source of moisture production on the wall, for example? or on some face?

  Have a look at "source terms". An hour given the normal CFD time step requirements will be a long calculation, would a steady solution give you the data you need?
