calculating forces coeff
Hi
I want to calculate forces for viscoelastic fluid flow. According to what I found out, just I should change the "fT" , i.e. tangential force. in forces.C code we can see: -etaS*dev(twoSymm(fvc::grad(U))); for shear stress. I have three questions: 1- why did it use deviatoric form of twoSymm(fvc::grad(U)) tensor? As you know the shear stress tensor is calculated by: -etaS*twoSymm(fvc::grad(U)) why deviatoric?! 2- why did it use minus in formula? 3- if I want to add it polymer stress tensor, what should I do? is it enough to write: (+ or - ??)tau - etaS*dev(twoSymm(fvc::grad(U))); thanks |
