bounding nuTilda_Mesh for airfoil 2D
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hi users,

I need to simulate turbulent flow at Re 1 M in OpenFOAM. I have generated the mesh in gmsh and choose the Spalart-Allmaras model; the data that have used are:
Freestream velocity U = 1m/s
density air rho = 1 kg/m3
chord c = 1m
viscosity nu = 1.e-06 m2/s

For the turbulent model I have used a viscosity ratio (nut/nu =0.1) and nutilda = 5*nut. I have set y+ = 1 and calculated the corresponding y through correlations with the Reynolds number.

The problem is that the simulation doesn't converge and also I obtain always a message: bounding nuTilda (with negative value)

In your opinion my mesh is okay? If yes, how I can solve this problem??

Thank you all very much !!!
