Problem getting Parabolic profile in pipe flow
1 Attachment(s)
Dear all
I was trying to get a parabolic fully-developed profile for a flow through a simple tube, meshing an axisymmetric domain. Even though I was using the solver for reacting flow- the laminarSimpleSMOKE solver (an incompressible laminar flow solver with chemical reactions), as a first check I am not solving the species equations, just solving for the flow. I guess I am doing some mess in my pressure and velocity boundaries and thats why couldnt get the profile. The profile I get is attached. I boundary conditions I use are- For P- FoamFile { version 2.0; format ascii; class volScalarField; location "0"; object p; } // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // dimensions [1 -1 -2 0 0 0 0]; internalField uniform 101325; boundaryField { inlet { type zeroGradient; } outlet { type fixedValue; value uniform 101325; } axisym_f1 { type wedge; } axisym_r1 { type wedge; } outerwall { type zeroGradient; } } For U- FoamFile { version 2.0; format ascii; class volVectorField; location "0"; object U; } // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // Umean 0.138475; dimensions [0 1 -1 0 0 0 0]; internalField uniform (0 0 0); boundaryField { inlet { type fixedValue; value uniform ($Umean 0 0); } outlet { type zeroGradient; } axisym_f1 { type wedge; } axisym_r1 { type wedge; } outerwall { type fixedValue; value uniform (0 0 0); } } For T- FoamFile { version 2.0; format ascii; class volScalarField; location "0"; object T; } // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // dimensions [0 0 0 1 0 0 0]; internalField uniform 298; boundaryField { inlet { type fixedValue; value uniform 298; } outlet { type zeroGradient; } axisym_f1 { type wedge; } axisym_r1 { type wedge; } outerwall { type fixedValue; value uniform 300; } } Could anyone please tell me if you experience similar problems? Please share your suggestions. Thanks |
