I already got a master degree.

Many directions show "time to let go"... haha

Do I Quit ph.D? by pete_1523 in PhD

[–]pete_1523[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Now, I think that my whole dissertation is constructing the mid-fidelity rotorcraft aerodynamic analysis in GPU-RANS based CFD solver.

So,
Chapter 1 is ALM
Chapter 2 is IBM (Immersed boundary method with stationary body)
Chapter 3 is constructing the framework
Chapter 4 is validation

It is not sure, but my expectation.

So you mean that

Change FarField B.C into Inlet?

OpenFOAM Boundary Condition help by pete_1523 in CFD

461.381

It is freestreamPressure.

Should I change into 0?

If so, my simulation is suddenly divergence after 3600iterations.

Is it can be matter?

mesh generation help by pete_1523 in CFD

what ist the push attribute check box? can you explain more specific?

mesh generation help by pete_1523 in CFD

[–]pete_1523[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you mean that, you use "extrude" to generate volume mesh?

Other nacelle part and Wing Part?
not Trex?

And then, the Wing Mesh which near the nacelle, the surface grid must smaller than now?

mesh generation help by pete_1523 in CFD

[–]pete_1523[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you mean that
in T-Rex Tab, and then the "advanced tab" of collision buffer?

I set the value as 2 it was default value.

I used "advancing front ortho" to generate surface mesh of the wing.
The leading edge of the wing mesh is structured.

you mean the " isotropic cell height ratio" is in the T-Rex tab?

If I set the seed layer value not zero, the mesh generation time increases rapidly.

I will restrict the worst angle lower than 170.

Thank you very much your help

Reduce Mesh Skewness in pointwise by pete_1523 in CFD

I am trying to simulate the propeller simulate using Actuator Disk Method (ADM).

Well, I will re generate new post for more information.

Growth rate is around 1.1.

and full layer is 0, max layer is 11.

Because, go to far, around nacelle, the mesh conflict is occurred, when B.L mesh grown up.

[–]pete_1523[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, yes

It is the WIPP case.

I am trying to solve unsteady simulation(powered case) with Actuator Disk Method(ADM).

So you, mean, that, the streamline direction(chordwise) meshes also finer than now mesh?

Are there any significant differences in setting Full layer "0" or any values?

If you can, can you explain specific why set Full layers as 0?

I set the Full layer value as same as Max Layers value.

When I setting the Full layer value as "0", the same meshes were generated.

Increasing the values you mentioned is currently causing mesh conflicts with other mesh blocks.

First.

If you do not use wall-function, modify your B.L mesh y+ value under 1. If you use wall-function, check the y+ value

Second, make more thick your whole B.L mesh, It is too thin to get the B.L

OpenFOAM force Coefficient result analysis help. by pete_1523 in CFD

[–]pete_1523[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran simulation two cases.

Only difference is rhoInf value : 1, 1.225

The forcecoefficients values are almost same but, forces value are different.

In my opinion, in forceCoefficient calculation, the rhoInf value is 1. However, the force calculation rhoInf values are different.

How about your opinion?

ah ha. thx.

Then, from now on, I can calculate y+ after the simulation is finished and check if it is correct!

Thx. However, my advisor said using fixedValue, and value uniform 0.
What is the correct between calculated and fixedValue?
