Hi all,
sorry for not responding for while.

@Technoyoungman:
Yes I did check the total pressure, but as I didn't made a picture back then, I can't tell you anything at the moment. I have to...

I would support that. The Schemes only influenced the fluctuations.

When it comes to cell size of the mesh, I'm trying a very coarse mesh in inviscid mode at the moment and the shock is off 10%....

Thats what I heared too.

I'm now trying to run rhoCentralFoam in inviscid mode. The fluctuations are not too big in my case, but the main problem I have is that, the shock on my airfoil is too far...

Hi ndr,
no I didn't resolve the Boundary layer with y+ = 1.The reason is, that it would take ages. I now got the possibility to run my cases on 6 processors and simulating one second of flow takes...

Yes it's about a pressure velocity decoupling.

:D thanks a lot for all your help until now. I'll let you if I find anything out, but maybe I can unmystify it a little bit ;-)

Have nice weekend....

So after waiting for ages I reached a time of 0.186 and you're the oscillations are slowly decaying, as you can see below. So I'm going to wait a little longer.

As the fluctuations are spacial, I'm thinking the problem might be connected to fvSolution. Maybe I gonna try ...

Hi vkrastev

concerning div(tauMC) I now think, that I remember that Openfoam returned an error when I tried the upwind scheme. But your explanation is pretty convinient.

Hi vkrastev,
first of all many thanks for staying with me and my problem.

Yes I tried upwind, but not for div(tauMC). I'm now trying MUSCL 0.9 for div(phi,omega) and div(phi,k).

thanks for the advice. I thought about changing the boundary condition, but the thing that kept from doing it was, that I couldn't find any pressure waves being reflected at the boundaries....

No shock in airfoil 0012 case despite of Mach number exceeds 1

Hi Foamers,
I'm pretty new to OpenFoam and CFD in general. I managed to get good results for low subsonic speeds on the NACA 0012. Now I'm trying to go transsonic for my thesis.
