hi
I am trying to find wall shear stress contours in a 3d pipe with openfoam .simulation information are laminar,unsteady,newtonian fluid.I am using icofoam solver . openfoam Y velocity quantities are almost the same as the right answers but wall shear stress quantities are completely wrong in the other word the right answers are given from 0.4 to 7 but mine are between [1.61669e-06,1.61669e-05] I used these codes please help me to find the solution. in 0 file ,wallShearStress folder Code:
dimensions [0 2 -2 0 0 0 0]; Code:
RASModel laminar; Code:
simulationType RASModel; |
Ali,
CFD can be tricky for even seemingly trivial tasks. There are numerous settings and requirements that influence the answer since, after all you are modeling a real system with discretized equations and discrete time and space. With that said:
There are many possibilities for "why", but without more information this is as good as I can get. Have a look at http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...-get-help.html and people always love pictures. Good Luck! |

thanks for your attention
I have attached the mesh . About transport properties I should mention that I put nu quantity equal to result of nu = mu/rho.This is checkMesh result: Code:
Create polyMesh for time = 0 Code:

Which data set are you comparing against?
|
wall shear stress quantities

Since i have no idea what your Re or Co number are I will start to make some more suggestions based on what you have given. Your mesh is not completely orthogonal (is this a Gambit mesh?) so you should change your Laplacian Schemes to
Code:

snGradSchemes |
thanks alot
I have changed what ever you mentioned but I found that I have not scaled the geometry and my dimensions are in meter but I need them to be in millimeter so I scaled them ,I have checked the solution in fluent with this scaled geometry with steady state boundary conditions it shows the right wall shear stress but as soon as I want to run it in openFoam with an unsteady boundary conditions it was diverged ,I post it here ,If it is possible take a look and help.

thank you |
Run your case again and attach the text file of the output to this post if it is small. You can attach txt files....so use the command
Code:
icoFoam >log.icoFoam.txt 2>&1 Code:
what information is necessary to reproduce this issue? |
