Question about Multigrid in CFX
Hi,
May I ask if there's an automatic way to implement the multigrid method in CFX? |
Um, yes - it is the default solver option. So if you have done a CFX simulation you have used a multigrid method.

Does default multigrid method also work for multi-domain case in CFX? |
It is unlikely that any problem you are having with convergence is due to the linear solver, and even more unlikely that the manual control you describe will be any better.
If you are having convergence difficulties it is almost certainly due to some setup issue with your simulation. You should fix that problem rather than trying to tweak the linear solver. The multigrid solver is the linear solver used by CFX for all simulations. So yes, it can handle multi-domain cases as well. |
To clarify, the linear solver in CFX uses algebraic multigrid which works on the coefficient matrix directly rather than a hierarchy of grids. As Glenn said it is the default solver and should work quite well in practically all cases. Manually transferring between grids is unlikely to be helpful.
