Hello everybody, this is my first post in this forum so I'll try to be concise:
I'm simulating the near wake of a wind turbine by designing an actuator disc, in the simulation I have made the actuator disc as a subdomain porous medium with a momentum loss. https://goo.gl/photos/1MSUACnsA8D1vZCt9 https://goo.gl/photos/e9bsYd3Si4SH4aBp7 That model worked perfectly fine, no issues there, but then I tried to make it a bit more complex by creating several concentric discs (or rings) each of those being as well a porous subdomain and with different loss coefficients because the energy taken form the wind is different in different parts of the wing. I found out that the program was not able to calculate de solution, throwing at me an error 2. Pictures of the second model: https://goo.gl/photos/TLbbWVTYMZVSeXxTA https://goo.gl/photos/szG4kNFt66aW75B16 https://goo.gl/photos/3dpiw3YEVVB5JQPe8 Thank you very much for any help or hints that you can give me. |
