Hi all,
I'm using pisofoam to solve incompressible flow past multiple square cylinders at very low Reynolds number for Re < 150. The maximum Courant number is 0.22. I'm seeing oscillations in the time history of coefficients. The flow seems ok. Could someone suggest to me what should I do to aviod such oscillations. I'm also showing below the controlDict, fvSchemes and fvSolution file. Thanks, S Jawahar. /*--------------------------------*- C++ -*----------------------------------*\ ========= | \\ / F ield | OpenFOAM: The Open Source CFD Toolbox \\ / O peration | Website: https://openfoam.org \\ / A nd | Version: 6 \\/ M anipulation | \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ FoamFile { version 2.0; format ascii; class dictionary; location "system"; object controlDict; } // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // application pisoFoam; startFrom startTime; startTime 186.790000000094494; stopAt endTime; //stopAt writeNow; endTime 1000; deltaT 0.001; writeControl timeStep; writeInterval 1000; purgeWrite 0; writeFormat ascii; writePrecision 12; writeCompression off; timeFormat general; timePrecision 6; runTimeModifiable true; fvSchemes: /*--------------------------------*- C++ -*----------------------------------*\ ========= | \\ / F ield | OpenFOAM: The Open Source CFD Toolbox \\ / O peration | Website: https://openfoam.org \\ / A nd | Version: 6 \\/ M anipulation | \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ FoamFile { version 2.0; format ascii; class dictionary; location "system"; object fvSchemes; } // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // ddtSchemes { default CrankNicolson 0.5; ddt(phi) CrankNicolson 0.5; } gradSchemes { default Gauss linear; } divSchemes { default none; div(phi,U) Gauss limitedLinearV 1; div(phi,k) Gauss limitedLinear 1; div(phi,epsilon) Gauss limitedLinear 1; div(phi,omega) Gauss limitedLinear 1; div(phi,R) Gauss limitedLinear 1; div(R) Gauss linear; div(phi,nuTilda) Gauss limitedLinear 1; div((nuEff*dev2(T(grad(U))))) Gauss linear; } laplacianSchemes { default Gauss linear corrected; } interpolationSchemes { default linear; } snGradSchemes { default corrected; } fvSolution: /*--------------------------------*- C++ -*----------------------------------*\ ========= | \\ / F ield | OpenFOAM: The Open Source CFD Toolbox \\ / O peration | Website: https://openfoam.org \\ / A nd | Version: 6 \\/ M anipulation | \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ FoamFile { version 2.0; format ascii; class dictionary; location "system"; object fvSolution; } // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // solvers { p { solver GAMG; tolerance 1e-06; relTol 0.1; smoother GaussSeidel; } pFinal { $p; tolerance 1e-06; relTol 0; } "(U|k|epsilon|omega|R|nuTilda)" { solver smoothSolver; smoother GaussSeidel; tolerance 1e-05; relTol 0; } } PISO { nCorrectors 3; nNonOrthogonalCorrectors 0; pRefCell 0; pRefValue 0; } |
