#include "udf.h"

#include "mem.h"



#define Q 145000 //J/mol

#define A 8.86e+6

#define n 3.55

#define R 8.314 //J/molK

#define alpha 0.045

DEFINE_PROPERTY(cell_viscosity, c, t)

{

real temp = C_T(c, t);

real mu_lam;

real Z;

real Flow_stress;

real x;

real strain;

if (strain < 0)

{

strain = 10;

}

else


{
strain = C_STRAIN_RATE_MAG(c, t);

}


Z = (strain)*exp(Q / (R*temp));

x = pow((Z / A), (1. / n));

Flow_stress = (1. / alpha)*(log(x + sqrt(pow(x, 2) + 1.)));

mu_lam = Flow_stress / (3.*strain);

if (mu_lam > 0)

return mu_lam;

}

we are trying to define the viscosity in term of strain rate and temperature using UDF code but, we are not getting value as expected.

AlexanderZ will become famous soon enoughAlexanderZ will become famous soon enough
you should specify what exactly is different from your expectations
compile the code and you will get following output:
Code:
warning C4715: 'cell_viscosity' : not all control paths return a value
warning C4700: uninitialized local variable 'strain' used
fix that

take into account that DEFINE_PROPERTY macro is a loop over all cells in domain, but your variable strain contains only 1 value for the last cell, it overwrites each other cell. You may use used defined memory to store strain on each cell

Also I would initialize strain for the 0-time moment

Can you please show us how to do that because I am new to this and when I try this code every cell get's same viscosity value.
