icoFsiFoam implementation with Turek/Hron benchmark

cutty4sark · May 10, 2012, 19:35

Hello All,

I've been using/struggling with OpenFOAM and more specifically icoFsiFoam for awhile now. I too am trying to run the Turek/Hron FSI benchmark with icoFsiFoam using a self made mesh and cobbling together the rest of the case files from the flapping console example. checkMesh is fine with my mesh, but I'm getting a floating point exception which I am unsure of how to track down. I'm currently running everything in OpenFOAM-1.5-dev on Ubuntu 9.10 if that helps. Attached should be the case file. Any help would be greatly appreciated. BTW, my end goal is to build a solver that can handle the heat transfer from solid to fluid or vice versa.

Hi,
take a look at Multi-Region Conjugate Heat/Mass Transfer MRconjugateHeatFoam: & Files
or Block-coupled solvers,
those Block-coupled stuff comes with OF1.6-ext so you might what to download the LiveDVD that was made for the 6th OpenFOAM Workshop

I've been working on this problem a little bit more recently and have a couple of questions. How does OpenFOAM know which "U" it is looking for, i.e., velocity in the fluid and displacement in the solid. I know that in the solveSolid.H file there is a reference to Usolid. Where is this variable ever defined? The only include file is readStressedFoamControls.H and it only calls the ncorrectors and convergence tolerance. How does OpenFOAM know to look in the solid directory for Usolid? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Andrew
