Hello, No, to my knowledge, we have not observed this on our machines. Which version of the Intel compilers do you use (on our side, We mainly use the 2022.2 LLVM-based compilers on one cluster, and the (much) older 18.1 on another machine. I also tested with 24.1 on my local workstation. The PBS as...

Hello,

I think a colleague had plans for "summation by zone" of selected variables, which would fit here, so yes, there are plans for this in the GUI, though I have no idea on where this sits on the priority list.

Best regards,

Yvan

Hello, Yes, when you use the GUI, you only need to specify the "alpha" term, which is multipled by 0.5*|U| in the cs_gui_head_losses function, to build the ckupdc term which is itself multiplied by rho*U in the function and line you mention. When using the cs_user_head_losses term, the use...

Hello, Did you try visualizing the boundary stresses ? to check for the sensitivity when you increase the velocity ? This may help you determine if/where there is a bug (i.e. bug in you code, bug in upstream code_saturne, or no obvious bug but forces in given zone not too sensitive to velocity) ? Be...

Hello, It seems your source terms leads to temperature increasing very rapidly, and then velocity increasing very fast probably as a consequence. You might try adding the source term progresively, so as to avoid a high energy input that is not convected. I also recommend visualizing the source term ...

Hello, Temperature is computed based on enthalpy, so if you change one without changing the other, I am not too Also, the computation of rho requires specific precautions in combustion cases, and there is a relaxation parameter (check for srrom) in this regards. I would not expect a computation in w...

Hello, Which fields are you trying to turn off ? Whatever you do in d3pint, pppdfr, and d3pphy, some physical properties are updated elsewhere, and all solved combustion fields are still solved in the loop on scalars (which used to be scalai.f90 in older versions, and is now in cs_solve_transported_...

Hello Tomaso, Yes, do not hesitate to contact me for a meeting. In any case, you probably want to extrude the mesh at inlets or outlets, bit not everywhere, as this would also thicken the geometry (unless this is what you want, but I assume in this case you would rather be adding a viscous layer, wh...

Hello,

I checked with colleague and it seems someone is working on this at the university of Manchester, but this has never been usable in the main code repository.

Best regards,

Yvan

Hello Tomaso, Could you provide more details on where the extrusion occurs ? Also, If you are working with Pr Behbahani, you certainly have my contact, so you can send me an e-mail and we can try to organize a short call to suggest options. For your sort of application (and meshes I have seen with y...
