buoyancy-driven
 
I'm pretty to openFOAM, I would like to know how I can change (increase or reduce) the reynolds number in the buoyancy-driven case tutorial?

Any help on this would be appreciated

Thanks much

well, you can change your fluid properties or change temperature difference to increase velocity

Right, thanks much for your reply. I am having some trouble with this tutorial, After giving all the parameters for the streamline plots the geometry or domain disappers, and I can't get the tracer?

not sure about what the problem would be?

Thanks,

its easy ;) you need just to click on stream traces and choose appropriate line source, if domain disappear, look whether the eye in pipeline browser is active or not :)

Right, I did it and I keep having the same problem? OpenFOAM works with staggered or collocated grids options. I've seen here that all the solvers work with collocated?

as much as i know it works with collocated solvers
