Dear Foamers,
I started to compute an IDDES (Improved Delayed Detached Eddy Simulation) with OpenFOAM-1.7.0 I already fixed the bugs which were in this version. The setting I took is identical to the channel395 tutorial of OpenFOAM. I only changed the turbulence settings, as I computed with SpalartAllmarasIDDES instead of oneEqEddy. For delta I took delta IDDESDelta; Unfortunately I set deltacoefficient to 1, but is has to be set to 2 for a hexamesh. I computed yPlus with yPlusLES, is this right for a DES? The result was an y+ of 0.78. With nu=2e-5 and y(1)=0.0048 I computed an u tau of 3.25 e-3 This results in a Re_tau of 162.5 which is far too low. In other threads I saw an u tau of 0.0079 which results in the proper Re tau of 395. What might be the reason for this? I started averaging after 900 s which is related to 30 flow through times. Then I computed another 20.000 time steps which results in 4000 s with a delta t of 0.2. Is yPlusLES the correct method for computing yPlus when using an LES? Might the delta coefficient be the reason for this low u tau? I also wonder how u_tau can be 0.0079, with y=0.0048 and nu=2 e-5, because this results in a y+ of 1.8 >1.... Does someone have experiences with this case? I would appreciate any help or comments. Kind Regards Anne |
