Hi team, In Code_Saturne v7.0.2, I'd like to monitor the change of kinetic energy in whole field with time. Specifically, in each time step, Code_Saturne calculates kinetic energy in whole field, and output these values into a file. Then, I can plot its change with time. Could you share an example f...

Hi Yvan, I have tested Code_Saturne three velocity scheme -- automatic, SOLU and second-order scheme. As you predicted, SOLU and second-order scheme show excellent 2nd-order accuracy, but second-order scheme has lower error. The default setup (automatic) only has first-order accuracy, as shown in be...

Hello Yvan, Thanks for your advice in post-processing. I know the reasons and list here in case someone has similar questions: (1) I should extract velocity component instead of resultant velocity. (2)I extract data from the cell centre and avoid any interpolation scheme. (3)I use velocity centered ...

Hi Yvan,

I used paraview to extract data (velocity distribution) and tested interpolation and no interpolation. The error calculation is through L2-norm:

Hi Yvan,

I tested this case using centered velocity scheme, but it shows similar results.

Thanks Yvan, (1) Did you test using the default centered scheme? I think Code_Saturne default is velocity upwind scheme, and it results is first-order accuracy. Let me test centered scheme then. (2)what type of mesh are you using ? I generate mesh using Code_Saturne GUI, as shown below. Best, Yang

Hi team, I did a convergence study using Code_Saturne v7.0.2. I tested a pseudo-3D Poiseuille flow with inlet boundary (u=4.0*(y-y*y)) and outlet boundary. Also, the domain is (1m * 1m) and uniform mesh with 16, 50, 100 resolutions. In order to ensure accuracy, I set SOLU velocity scheme. However, m...

Hi team,

I am using code_saturne v7.0.2. I want to use GUI to calculate time-averaged variables every 10 timesteps. I guess the default time-averaged calculation every timestep. Thanks.

Hi team, I am working on coupling simulation with Code_Saturne v7.0.2 with corresponding PLE library. I have achieved such coupling simulation: Code_Saturne receives data and places on it boundary face centre by the function cs_syr_coupling_define [https://github.com/code-saturne/code_saturne/blob/m...
