yade?

DFNFlow is used to model fluid moving through cracks in stiff materials
by reassigning permeability of cracks using a parallel plate
approximation instead of a darcy flow. Your problem description is too
vague for me to know if this fits your needs.

>Do I have to use DFNFlowEngine, in which case I have to compile the yade?
can I use other fluid Engine such as FlowEngine?

I believe DFNFlow is not compiled in yadedaily, so yes you would need to
compile yade. DFNFlow is a derivative of FlowEngine.
