Hi,
I hope someone will be able to clarify the following; wallShearStress is calculated as R*n, where R is the stress tensor and n is the surface normal. When you export wallShearStress on a patch openfoam gives you the data on mesh points. But points are shared by several faces, which may have different normal orientations. So how do you make sense of the values you get? Cheers, |
