Hi,
I am trying to validate icoFoam for the backward facing step results of Armaly et. al. I have a Reynolds number of 1200 and the expected ratio of recirculation length to step size is 18 whereas I get a value of 5 at steady state. Could this be a problem with using icoFoam? Please help. I am attaching the openFoam folder structure for the problem setup. Regards, Gaurav |
