Re: turbomachinery, full transient and frozen rotor problems
OK, I unpacked the file with great hope, only to see that it has .des mesh files (simail/nopo). How can I get these into Salome, so that I can see what the domains look like? Is it just a solid cylinder (int) inside a hollow cylinder (ext)? And volume 1 is the solid cylinder (presumably also the rot...

Re: turbomachinery, full transient and frozen rotor problems
Wonderful, thank you Yvan. It will take me a while to dig into that example. Also, as you seem to suggest, I had contemplated changing the rotor such that the rotor/stator interface includes all moving surfaces, i.e. there would be no need to have sliding wall boundary conditions. For example, the r...

Re: turbomachinery, full transient and frozen rotor problems
Yvan, I have attached the Model.py file. All you have to do is load it as a script into Salome. It will create the geometry and the script. That may be the easiest for you to see what this looks like. I also just started to run this with 0 m/s on all boundaries, even the ones that I think should be ...

Re: turbomachinery, full transient and frozen rotor problems
Hello, I am trying to make a hydraulic turbomachinery problem work. Would you, by any chance, be willing to share your solution, so I may learn from it? I think I have the meshing correct, at least as far as volumes and faces and such are concerned. I just can't specify the boundary conditions, e.g....

Re: turbomachinery rotating shaft surface velocity
Thank you kindly, Yvan. When I try to enter anything else in the U, V or W fields shown in the attached screen shot, then the GUI does not accept the input. It seems I can only enter numbers here. I also recall that wherever I can enter equations, the GUI tends to have a button that I can push and t...

turbomachinery rotating shaft surface velocity
I am trying out the turbomachinery module in the CS GUI. I still do not understand the turbomachinery setup completely, but one thing that I think needs to be present is a no-slip velocity boundary condition at the shaft wall. This cannot simply be [u,v,w] = [0,0,0], but must represent the circumfer...

request for help with convergence problem
OK, so I really like the way Salome and code_saturne interact. When a problem converges, I feel very comfortable with this software combination now. The sad thing is, the fewest of the problems I have tried to tackle do actually converge. The latest problem I am trying to look at is the underfloor p...

head loss K on free outlet
So, I am trying to run a relatively simple case where I specify a duct with a wall, an inlet with an imposed volume flow rate and an outlet that represents a throttle in real live. Obviously then, the outlet cannot be just a simple "outlet" to reference pressure. Instead, I think I will ha...

Re: Code_Staurne 5.0 check mesh
I see. I had created the case using the old 4.0. Now I did one with the new 5.0. It turns out, the "missing" script file for mesh processing is the same "runcase.bat" file. So that works now. The mesh output now also seems to end up in "preprocesor.log", not "check...

Re: Code_Staurne 5.0 check mesh
Hi Yvan, yes, I can see these two buttons now. I guess even in mesh mode, one actually has to go to "Calculation management" - > "Prepare batch calculation" and do a "Start calculation" with "Preprocessing type" set to "Mesh quality criteria"? Howeve...
