Hi foamers!
I'm trying to compute a 2D flow in the (x,y) plane but the trick is that flow has non zero Ux Uy and Uz component. All components are functions of x and y only though. Does anybody know how I can do such a run ? The problem is, with "empty" BC to have a 2D case, the Uz component is set to zero by the solver (even though the inflow Uz is non zero)... What I am currently doing is computing a 3D flow with a few cells in the z direction and with cyclic BC, but this is not computationnally efficient at all, so I am trying to find a way to resolve the system in 2D only. |

What do you mean ? Should I write my own solver then ?

Yes! You should write your own solver..
You need something like this. fvScalarMatrix UxEqn ( fvm::ddt(rho, Ux) + fvm::div(phi,Ux) + fvc::grad(p).component(vector::X) // The x component for the gradient term. ); |
