KIVA (Wall boundary conditions)
Hi Guys
I try to run a gas flow in a duct in Kiva with uniform inflow boundary. When I apply the law of the wall as a boundary condition in kiva, the tangential velocity components are not zero at the walls, just the normal velocity is zero. Also the average velocity is different in various cross sections. I am wondering if any body has any idea about these. Thanks |
Hi Jazy,
I also had a similar problem before, since law of the wall condition doesn't work properly when you have a fine mesh. To start with, I could recommend you to try either running the code with different boundary condition (free slip to check out what's going on) or to have a proper look at the law of the wall subroutine. I tried to deactivate it when i run my code with very fine meshes, and at least the code doesn't crash. hope it helps |
