i want your help please
 

would you please send me a source.c code of UDF for 3D velocity inlet to cylinderical geometry really iam spent long time but i failed to write correct one thanks alot in avance sihat e mail sihatt2002@yahoo.com

Re: i want your help please
 

wat is ur flow direction and inlet condition? normal to surface or only z velocity or what? and what type of boundary profile you expect at inlet?

Regrads Rizwan

Re: i want your help please
 

thanks alot for your reply Mr. Rodwam, the flow direction is in the x-direction and the inlet is parabolic inlet velocity and here i have to use parabolic velocity equation to write the code and i try this alot but i fail to write correct code ,in fluent there is an example for parabolic inlet velocity for 2D flow but for me iwant this for 3D so i need your help thanks again sihat

Re: i want your help please
 

send me the code u have wrote. il complete it. Regards Rizwan

this is my code which is not give me the correct answer that iam using initial parabolic velocity inlet for 3D cylinderical geometry thanks in advance Mr. Rizwan

#include "udf.h"

DEFINE_PROFILE(inlet_x_velocity,thread,position) {

real x[ND_ND];

real y,z;

face_t f;

begin_f_loop(f,thread)

{

F_CENTROID(x,f,thread);

y=x[0];

z=x[2];

F_PROFILE(f,thread,position)=0.55-.0.55*pow(z+Y,20)/pow(0.05,20)*0.55;

}

end_f_loop(f,thread);

}

Re: i want your help please
 

what is the size of ur pipe, diameter and max velocity?

Re: i want your help please
 

0.55-.0.55*pow(z+Y,20)/pow(0.05,20)*0.55;

0.55 = max inlet velocity the flow is in the x-direction y-direction =the radial direction z-direction =the angular direction

annd this is the profile witen in the fluent manual 0.55-.0.55*pow(z+Y,20)/pow(0.05,20)*0.55;

so please help to write correct inlet parabolic velocity for 3D cylinderical geometry sihat

Re: i want your help please
 

Have a look at this function. You should define in your header (or at the beginning of your file) FLOW_DIRECTION (1 for x direction, 2 for y direction and 3 for z direction) U0 (maximum velocity) and RP(pipe radius).

DEFINE_PROFILE(velocity_profile,thread,index) { #if !RP_HOST #if FLOW_DIRECTION==1

real x[ND_ND]; /* this will hold the position vector */

real y,z;

face_t f;

/* loops over all faces in the thread */

begin_f_loop(f,thread)

{

F_CENTROID(x,f,thread);

y = x[1];

z = x[2];

F_PROFILE(f,thread,index) = U0*(1.0-(y*y+z*z)/(RP*RP));

}

end_f_loop(f,thread) #elif FLOW_DIRECTION==2

real y[ND_ND]; /* this will hold the position vector */

real x,z;

face_t f;

/* loops over all faces in the thread */

begin_f_loop(f,thread)

{

F_CENTROID(y,f,thread);

x = y[0];

z = y[2];

F_PROFILE(f,thread,index) = U0*(1.0-(x*x+z*z)/(RP*RP));

}

end_f_loop(f,thread) #elif FLOW_DIRECTION==3

real z[ND_ND]; /* this will hold the position vector */

real x,y;

face_t f;

/* loops over all faces in the thread */

begin_f_loop(f,thread)

{

F_CENTROID(z,f,thread);

x = z[0];

y = z[1];

F_PROFILE(f,thread,index) = U0*(1.0-(x*x+y*y)/(RP*RP));

}

end_f_loop(f,thread) #else

Error("FLOW_DIRECTION should be 1, 2 or 3"); #endif /* FLOW_DIRECTION */ #endif /* RP_HOST */ }

Re: i want your help please
 

thanks alot for your help but i have alittle bead confusion because i try so many but it give massage you have prase error in line 1 my question can you Mr Bogdan give me the typically what i must write to have corrct code if my flow is in x-ditection of 3D cylinder radius=0.55 max velocity=3.2m/s thanks alot sihat

Re: i want your help please
 

so a minimum file should be like this:

#include "udf.h"

#define U0 3.2

#define RP 0.55

#define FLOW_DIRECTION 1 /*for x direction*/

then the function previous posted.

Hope this helps, Bogdan

Re: i want your help please
 

i want u please to help me how to write this function correctely to complet the code to be interpreted in fluent because i try so many times and it give massage error prase lin 23 in this function line that means it is not written correctely. so please help if u have experience. the function is:

V = 0.55[(1-(z+y)/(0.6)]^20 thanks alot in advance sihat
