I am using CFX to simulate compression stroke. I used ideal gas inside the cylinder and gave initial pressure 1e5 Pa and 300K. I getting 73 bar in the result. But calculated value is 45 bar.

Have you done a time step size sensitivity check? Have you done a mesh size sensitivity check? And convergence tolerance as well while we're at it?

Do you have adiabatic or heat transfer at the walls?

I have done compression stroke analysis and you should be able to get it within 1% without difficulty for simple cases.

Here's a general FAQ on accuracy: http://www.cfd-online.com/Wiki/Ansys..._inaccurate.3F

Hi,
I have given Heat transfer -total energy in the domain.
In the cylinder wall boundary Heat transfer- adiabatic.

That answers my question about the wall conditions. What about all the other question I asked?

My mesh has 37280 nodes and elements 34827. Only mass and energy is converging not the momentum. I am doing it in 400 iterations, total timestep is 17.72ms.

So that sounds like you have a convergence problem. That is a FAQ as well: http://www.cfd-online.com/Wiki/Ansys...gence_criteria

Let me repeat the important questions from my first post. They are almost certainly the problem so you really need to look into these:

Time step size sensitivity:

Do a simulation with a certain time step size. The repeat the simulation with the time step size halved. Compare the simulations, particularly of output variables you care about (pressure drop, lift, drag, whatever is important). Are they the same to within an tolerance you are happy with? If yes then your time step size is OK. If there is significant variation then you need to make your time step size finer.

This same method should be done on convergence criteria and mesh size.

I did 750 iterations were one timestep was 0.02362 ms and 1500 iterations were one timestep was 0.01181 ms and both had same pressure rise about 74 bar. In both cases momentum is not converging. what should I do now.?
In both cases I used more than 1lakh mesh. But I require only 45 bar

That suggests the issue is not time step size (but does not infer you time step size is correct, it just means your time step size is not the cause of the current problem).

For compression heating mesh size is not a key contributor so it is not likely to be that.

Have you checked your convergence tolerance (I did ask for this in my first post....)

Also please post an image of what you are modelling and your CCL.

I have given as RMS 1.E-4 and I have no what is convergence tolerance can you tell me what does that mean.?
I am sending you message by attaching model image and CCL

Try converging to 1E-5 and see if makes a difference.

No need to send my the images and CCL by PM, just post it on the forum.

And by the way, CCL is not a screen shot of CFX-Pre. Go File>Export>CCL.

Post it on the forum. Either as an attachment or just copy/paste the text. CCL files are usually pretty short - you can remove the materials definition section if you want to make it shorter to make it easier to paste.

I see lots of issues (you usually do when you see the CCL):

* You have defined a variable velocity1 = velocity*Time. This is very bad practise - you have defined a displacement with the name "velocity1". You really should name variables appropriately as it makes bug fixing far easier.
* I would not call a variable "velocity" either. That is a reserved name for internal CFX variables.
* You are using the SST SAS turbulence model. Why are you using such a complex turbulence model?
* For a simple model like this and for comparison against analytical results just use a laminar model.
* Have you checked that your mesh motion is correct?

Yes, I am getting required clearance volume which means mesh motion is correct. I use various profile on the piston top and compare turbulence intensity and Turbulent Kinetic energy during the compression stroke thats what I am trying to do.
You want me to use K-epsilon model instead of SST..?
I tried RMS 1E-5, its not converging.

So the compression generates flows which at this velocity are expected to be turbulent? In that case I would use the SST turbulence model by default.

You might need finer time steps to get the tighter residual tolerance to converge.

What data are you comparing against? Adiabatic compression equations or experimental data?

During the compression stroke various piston head profiles gives different squish velocity, TKE and turbulence intensity, so I would compare one profile with another profile based on the above mentioned results. I am not comparing with experimental.
So you doubt that convergance problem is not giving required pressure ?

In your original post you said you were getting 73 bar but expected 45 bar. So where did the 45 bar come from? And what pressure are you measuring anyway?

Tighter convergence is certainly something to try. I did not say I doubted it at all.
