Hi Rohith

Thank you for the suggestions. I would try to implement them and see how it goes.

As you indicated, the slopes are quite different but after having a word with the testing department...

Hi Rohith

The solver I am using is convMeltFoam from Fabian. Could you be more specific about what you mean by the algorithm employed? You mean the pressure corrector or something else?

Cheers...

Hi Ahmed

The mesh is fine but not finest. I did a grid study for my geometry and I took mesh levels of 0.5, 1 and 2 million. There is a noticeable difference from half to one million. But one to...

Hullo Fabian

I have conducted some test runs and compared with the experimental data available as a part of my master thesis. It was interesting to note that once the solid melted, a lot of noise...

@fabian

Sure, would be happy to read your thesis. Kindly post it here when you are done with it.

@YS

Can I have access to the paper you are referring to?

Cheers

Yes, the flow field did not change entirely. When i compare the result with AVL Fire, the difference in profile can be observed. This probably comes with the way the solver is implemented in Fire. I...

Hullo Fabian

I am not at liberty to disclose the properties of PCM. But I feel that Boussinesq approximation is introducing some error here. The approximation is I believe valid for a difference...

Hullo Fabian

I am sorry but there was no problem in my simulation actually. I was making a visualization error in AVL Fire. I took a sample test case(2D) to do some comparison of Foam and Fire. A...

hullo

I am a little stuck up with boundary conditions for wall. Let me explain. I am solving a 2D melting problem for comparison with AVL Fire. I have a surface named THOT and it is at a...

Thanks for the inputs Fabian. I played around a bit and looks like Courant no of 10 gives the fastest time possible. Maybe reducing the nCorrectors to 1 (I have two) might boost my speed up further...

Hullo All

I am new to Foam but I have been trying to simulate 3D melting phenomena using AVL Fire for my master thesis. AVL works well for hexa mesh but when i go for a tetra mesh it diverges....
