9 The issues - geometry Construct from scratch? OR Supplied geometry? Feature definition wrapping Outer domain (for external flow) Parameterisation 9
10 The issues geometry software Rhino CATIA DesignModeler Solidworks NX4 10
11 The issues - mesh Mesh tool? AND Mesh strategy? Boundary layer mesh? Mesh dependence? Computational cost? 11
12 The issues mesh software Harpoon Starccm+ ANSYS mesher ICEM CFD Solidworks 12
13 The issues - simulation Model definition? AND Solution strategy? Boundary conditions? Initial conditions? Monitoring? Convergence? 13
14 The issues simulation software Fluent Starccm+ CFX OpenFOAM 14
15 Reynold s number Why is Re important? Laminar > Transition > Turbulent Increasing Re FLUENT/ANSYS%20CO/fluent12-lecture06-turbulence.ppsx Boundary layer behaviour/representation 15
16 Simulation accuracy? Which of the above Cp variations is correct? Is either of them correct? If so, how accurate are they? Do the associated solutions yield physically meaningful results? 16
17 The issues post-process Need to show quantitative results Explain the results Verification Validation Has this flow separated? Errors Significance 17
18 Verification & Validation Verification Check for correct setup Validation Check accuracy of results (preferably against experimental data) 18
19 Test case 1. 2D flow over a backward facing step
20 2D flow over a backward facing step validation 20
21 2D flow over a backward facing step the experiment 21
22 2D flow over a backward facing step flow settings 22
23 2D flow over a backward facing step - results 23
24 2D flow over a backward facing step 2D versus 3D 24
25 2D flow over a backward facing step simulation 25
26 2D flow over a backward facing step simulation Model definition? AND Solution strategy? Boundary conditions? Initial conditions? Monitoring? Convergence? Solver settings Mesh dependence Resolution Type Boundary layer mesh Memory Convergence Simulation time Hardware Parallel simulation 26
27 Solver setup: default settings Mesh spacing = 1mm 27
28 Solver setup: change to 1 st order Mesh spacing = 1mm 28
29 Solver setup: pressure algorithm set to 2nd order Mesh spacing = 1mm 29
30 Solver setup: pressure based; SIMPLE; 2nd order (finer mesh) Mesh spacing = 0.5mm 30
31 Solver setup: switch to SIMPLEC and use higher under-relaxation factors Mesh spacing = 0.5mm Higher under-relaxation factors Default values Note: 0.8 for momentum didn t converge 31
32 So SIMPLEC converges well with high under-relaxation factors. BUT.do we trust the solution? Mesh spacing = 0.5mm 32
33 Solver setup: pressure based; Coupled; 2nd order (switch from SIMPLEC for finer mesh) Mesh spacing = 0.25mm Test under-relaxation Switch to 1 st order Switch to 2 nd order Switch to coupled solver SIMPLEC Coupled Coupled Selecting Coupled from the Pressure-Velocity Coupling drop-down list indicates that you are using the pressure-based coupled algorithm, described in this section in the separate Theory Guide. This solver offers some advantages over the pressure-based segregated algorithm. The pressure-based coupled algorithm obtains a more robust and efficient single phase implementation for steady-state flows. It is not available for cases using the Eulerian multiphase, NITA, and periodic mass-flow boundary conditions
34 Solver setup: The coupled solver 34
35 Solver setup: The coupled solver Mesh spacing = 0.5mm 35
36 Solver setup for mesh dependence Coupled solver is more robust and is recommended for steady-state solutions N.B. only incompressible flow considered here Use at least 2 nd order discretisation schemes Check convergence N.B. aim for at least three orders of magnitude Mesh dependence Consider at least four mesh resolutions Halve the mesh spacing each time 36
37 Mesh dependence: spacing of 1mm to 0.125mm 37
38 Mesh dependence x-component of shear stress on bottom wall. 38
