icoFsiFoam pressure dimension?
 
Hi everybody!!

I'm trying to run FSI cases with icoFsiFoam and I just would like to ask....why does the pressure variable has the following dimension?

[0 2 -2 0 0 0 0 0]

what does it mean? How should i set the value in the initial condition?

Thanks for the help.

Stefano :confused:

its "p/rho"
as rho is incompressible, it seems you divide pressure with a constant!

Greetings to all!

To complement Nima's answer, check this recent thread for more information: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...onditions.html

And don't forget that icoFSIFoam is based on icoFoam ;) So if you haven't read and done the first tutorial on the OpenFOAM User Guide... then go do it before using icoFSIFoam! :D

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi guys!

I've discovered the mistery 30 minutes after posting my thread... :o)

But anyway, thank you the same for your answers.
