[mesh manipulation] Grid convergence 2D Wave tank -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

July 15, 2019, 04:59	Grid convergence 2D Wave tank	#1
andreonife New Member Andre White Join Date: May 2019 Posts: 3 Rep Power: 6	I am running a case for a 2D wave tank with the following properties: Length of domain =21m; height of domain = 4.65m. The wave characteristics were also revised as follows: Wave height = 0.03m Wave period = 2.5s Wave length = 9.44m wave model -Stokesfirst Size of cell used is 750 x150 Aspect ratio = 1 The free surface elevation for the numerical model from OpenFOAM does not correlate well with that of the theoretical model. Can anyone with experience on this say why there is no convergence? Is something wrong with my AR or cell sizes?
