Dear Luca

I ran a supersonic flat plate flow with turbulence, but when I change different limiter of:
reconstruct(rho) Minmod;
reconstruct(U) Minmod;
reconstruct(T) Minmod;
such as Minmod, vanLeer, and superBee, the skin friction is quite differnt from each other, the minmod gave the highest value, while the superBee gave the lowest.
As for a supersonic flat plate, there is no shock in the boundary layer, i do not know why there is so much difference, when I look into the U file alone y direction, near the wall the limiters influence it. Do you noticed that when you did some simulation?
regards,
Jason

Hi, foamers,
when I search the "neg", the officical document show this:

neg
Foam::dimensionSet::neg()
Foam::neg(const dimensionedScalar &ds)
Foam::neg(const dimensionSet &)
Foam::neg(const label s)
Foam::neg(const Scalar s)
negate
negIndexFoam::BiIndirectList
negListFoam::BiIndirectList
negPart
negSumDiag

where is the function using field?

If all the "face area vectors" are pointed either toward the right or to the top, then:

on face the between i-1 and i (i-1/2),
"pos" would return rho[i-1]
"neg" would return rho[i]
on face the between i and i+1 (i+1/2),
"pos" would return rho[i]
"neg" would return rho[i+1]

The above is for zero-order reconstruction. For "cell-based" higher order reconstruction (e.g. limited-linear), the face values would take the form:
rho_pos[i+1/2] = rho[i] + drho[i]*(x[i+1/2] - x[i])
rho_neg[i+1/2] = rho[i] + drho[i]*(x[i+1/2] - x[i+1])

where drho[i] is limited gradient of rho at cell "i"

Good morning,
sorry to reopen this old thread, but I'm studying rhoCentraFoam and I would like to understand better how this solver works.


I can't understand when David writes:

rho_neg[i+1/2] = rho[i] + drho[i]*(x[i+1/2] - x[i+1])

I think "negative interpolation" interpolates from x[i+1], so that:
rho_neg[i+1/2] = rho[i+1] + drho[i+1]*(x[i+1/2] - x[i+1])
Is it corret, or am I missing something?


In general, refers to the article:
"Implementation of semi-discrete, non-staggered central schemes in a colocated, polyhedral, finite volume framework, for high-speed viscous flows" by C.J. Greenshields et Al.
it is explained how to compute positive interpolation of a general quantity:

However I can't understand how to compute .
I hope someone can help me.
Thank you
