Hi foamers,
is it possible to solve just for one velocity component? I want to simulate a straight duct with periodic boundary conditions. By definition the y-component of the velocity should be zero. Otherwise I get convergence problems with Uy Regards, Pascal |

hi
yes.its simple.just in blockmeshdict file define planes at y and z direction in empty dictionary.in this manner your problem will be one dimensional if you intended that. Be successful. |

Thank you for your reply immortality,
the thing is I don't want it completely 1D so I need Ux depending on the coordinate y. Only the solving for Uy should be switched off. The in and outlet planes are already defined as cyclic so I cannot specify to empty |
