How to find flow over the cylinder at different time

Prudviraj · May 4, 2020, 03:08

I am working flow over the cylinder, using 2D VOF transient and using variable time step...I want to know water flow over the cylinder at different time seconds.....can someone suggest...Attached image for your understanding...

Thanks in advance....

What is your problem specifically? You need first the solution forgets the arbitrary initial condition, then you can save the data in time at a specified interval

I want to find at what time the cylinder wall is fully wet and half wet, etc....

1. Create an Iso-surface with scalar as your required phase.
2. Create a report of sum of area for the iso-surface
3. Monitor the report to get the are wet by the fluid

Hope this helps ?
