Problem with timeVaryingUniformFixedValue
 

i modified the Cavity problem with a moving wall with u=u(t)


in the dictionary 0 there is the initeal of U

there:

in the ramp data

(
(0.0 (1 0 0))
(5.0 (10 0 0))
(5.00001 (0.001 0 0))
)

that means after 5s the velocity u of the wall stops





the problem is

that form t=0s till t=5s the wall velocity is groing that is good and the velocity field simes to be well but after that after t=5s when the wall velocity stops

the holleeee velocity field go to zero????? that is not normal it have to slow down

What is your next written timestep after the 5th second?

Maybe your fluid is viscous enought so it allready settled down back to zero velocity in this time period?

You can try to decrease the timestep after the 5th second, or increase the fluid viscosity.

hello sega

as you can se the ramp data is

(
(0.0 (1 0 0))
(5.0 (10 0 0))
(5.00001 (0.001 0 0))
)

that means from 5 to 5.00001 from 10m/s to 0.001m/s

and i donnt think that water is so viscos to get a zero velocity field???? i am really not shure what is going on there

and the same problem if i do

that means from 5 to 5.00001 from 10m/s to 0m/s

so i have no idea

Thats not what I am talking about.
Are you writing a timestep directory at 5.00001 or at a later time?
Meaning at which timestep are you investigating a zero velocity field?

i get the zero velocity field

5.25s

is it by zero

and the transport modell

Maybe you can investigate the results at a timestep inbetween 5 and 5.25.

hello sega


i just try it agian

at the time step of 5.1s the wall is zero and the field in the box is not zero :) , i think that is what you means it was to fast and the velocity field is zero (die viskosität ist wharschinlich so hoch gewessen das es sofort dann abgeklungen ist)


thank you very much that menas i now cann start wall velocity that is time dependent

:)

Yes! Thats what I meant. :)

Now have fun with all the upcoming simulations and don't hesitate to ask.
