Giving Random input through field function
 

Hi All

I am modelling noise cancellation in a duct and want to give random inputs through field functions as a (source of noise) is there any method/ command by which I can give random numbers?

you could use user coding or perhaps easier is to generate a table of random numbers and input this table into sccm+, I guess your table will be either or both a function of space and time, than you can create a field function based on the table. For the syntax just search in the help for field function reading tables.

Thanks It worked .

But the problem now I am encountering is while designing a controller. I need to give input based on the output received. Suppose I give a Random Input and I get some output then I need to process this output in Matlab and based on the output from matlab I need to give Input to the Star CCm+ . Could you please tell me how this could be implemented in STAR CCM+..

Complicated way is with a java macro, you run the simulation, stop, write output from sccm+, (somehow the java macro runs matlab, matlap-> output, update the input table in sccm+.

Another way is that you build a lookup table, perhaps you know the range of the output from sccm+, than you run matlab for this range of anticipated output from sccm+, matlab provides a table of results, this is now a table in sccm+. If my explanation did not make sense, just google "Lookup table"

hello,

if the user has the flexibility to create random number from java codes, then the random number generation code block can be embedded in the java macro itself. This will free the user to write another code to couple simulation with MATLAB.
