Non-Dimensionalizing Pimple Algorithm in OF 2.1

babakflame · March 28, 2017, 19:53

Dear Fellows

I am gonna work on non-dimesionalizing the momentum and continuity equations in interFoam solver of OpenFOAM 2.1.x.

I have read Ueqn.H and P.eqn.H header files before. However, as a starting point I have a question:
I have gone through Pimple Algorithm before, but here for non-dimensionalizing, just adding parameters to Ueqn.H suffices or should I alter Peqn.H as well?

Is there any thread here which gives some ideas? I searched a bit however, no useful threads.

Regards

Search better. This issue was already discussed here: Creating a solver for the nondimensionalized Navier-Stokes equation

Dear Santiago

Thanks for your reply. I will take a look at it.
