I think I did not understand what you said before.

-In my previous mesh near the slope i have only two cell. In my new cell three.
Here you say that you didn't use the same number of cells in the...

I don't understand why the mesh configuration could change the geometry. This is more a problem of how you do the mesh.

That seems to be better, did you keep the same cell height at the wall because of the y+ criteria ? Any improvement in the results ?

I can see two jumps in the size of the cells in the x directions, of a factor 2 or 3, which is not a good meshing practice. You should use very smooth variations in the cell sizes, in all directions....

Ok, you can then play with that to check if your results can be improved but that should be ok like that.
I think that you could use much more cells in the region which you are interested in as you...

There is an utility for that, yPlusRAS, and the correct range depends if you are using wall functions or not, which you should as you use a coarse mesh. Then the first cell point must be in the...

Have you checked the y+ values ? Are they in the correct range for your turbulence model ?

Are you using 5000 cells in the X direction or 5000 cells on the whole domain ? Is your mesh 2D ? How many cells do you use globally ? Did you refine the mesh close to the obstacle ? Can you post a...

That would more be linked with your mesh I think. If it is sufficiently refined, then the singularity should disappear. It seems to be coarse when I see the x variations of the wss which leads to the...

Ok, so the problem is in your file, can you share it?

I don't see the problem on the results, you have a recirculation so the flow is stalled after the obstacle so the stress become null at the...

Have you tried this ?

gradSchemes
{
default Gauss linearUpwind;
}

Does Gauss linear works ? Because it is second order so more precise.

Hi Daniele,

You may have a parenthesis problem in your file. Can you check it and share it if you didn't solve the problem ?
