Hi guys!
I tried to expand the domain in order to ensure flat surface (so you know that the height is zero). But I was not able to create a mesh. I constantly got the same error message as I posted. Only when I used Ben’s original domain and adjusted the z-directions it was OK. I “hope” the stl-file is bad outside the domain Ben suggested otherwise I do not understand why this did not work. Anyway – I have run the case and it work fine. I used simpleFoam (right now I did not make it work on simpleWindFoam. But my Bolund case (without turbines) work fine at both simpleFoam and simpleWindFoam and they looks similar). Ben – are you still on this case? I’m very interested in helping you since I’m learning a lot doing so. It is good to compare Bolund and Askervein. Are you two also working with turbines? siri |

Hi Guys,
I am planning on doing a project related to the Askervein Hill over the next few months as a part of my Masters. Thing is, I can't get hold of a .stl file of the hill. I have a limited amount of time to get the results and I would prefer to spend the time trying to get my RANS/LES hybrid model to work. Any chance I could use the a .stl file one of you guys have used. It goes without saying it will be properly attributed and referenced. Many Thanks, Toby Collinson University of Exeter. |

Hello,
did you manage to find this STL file? I have found a small cloud of points in this web site: http://code.google.com/p/fds-smv/sou...DS_Input_Files which one can convert to an STL using surf2stl.m or stlwrite under Matlab. But I am not sure if this the whole hill I am seeing there. The domain seems a bit coarse (129x129 points grid), and it looks smaller than what I usually see in theses/reports. I would be very grateful if you could point me to another source where to get an STL of the hill! Regards, Carlos |
