Re: Schmidt number in code saturne

Post by Tsubasa »

Hello,

Yes I referred to some exmaple of "cs_field_set_key_double",
but I cannot find an answer to what is "f" in this case.

Code: Select all

void
cs_user_parameters(cs_domain_t   *domain)
{
  cs_field_set_key_double(f, cs_field_key_id("ksigmas"), 0.3);
}
I tried it with "CS_F_(t)", but this is of course wrong,
becasue ksigmas is not field, right?

Would you tell me tips?

Best regards,
Tsubasa

Hello,

Check the setup.log file for existing field keys.

Code: Select all

void
cs_user_parameters(cs_domain_t   *domain)
{
  cs_field_set_key_double(f, cs_field_key_id("turbulent_schmidt", 0.5));
}

Hello,

When I add this code in "cs_user_parameters.c"

Code: Select all

void
cs_user_parameters(cs_domain_t   *domain)
{
  cs_field_set_key_double(CS_F_(t), cs_field_key_id("turbulent_schmidt"), 0.3);
}
This error can be seen

What should I correct in code?
"CS_F_(t)" is wrong?

Hello,

Is a thermal model active ?

Please remember to follow provide at least some of the info recommended in the Forum guidelines, otherwise this is going to take forever...

Hello Yvan,

No, thermal model is not active. I only set "scalar" in specieas transport.
Do I need thermal model?
In my case I need turbulent schmidt number (not turbulent Prandtl number) which is related to eddy viscosity and eddy diffusivity.
Even though my simulation doesn't take hear into account, should I activate thermal model?

"listing" file shows

Code: Select all

command: 
 ./cs_solver --mpi

Re: Schmidt number in code saturne

Hello,

You don't need a thermal model in general but if you are trying to set the Schmidt number for temperature, then you do need a thermal model to activate the temperature variable.

In your examples it seemed that that was what you were trying to do.

Otherwise, use code similar to the example but replace CS_F_(t) by a pointer to the field whose Schmidt number you want to change (you can repeat for multiple variables if needed).

Hello Yvan,

As you said, the simulation worked without error.
However, even if I changed Schmidt number from 0.1 to 0.9 by this code

Code: Select all

void
cs_user_parameters(cs_domain_t   *domain)
{
  cs_field_set_key_double(CS_F_(t), cs_field_key_id("turbulent_schmidt"), 0.1);
}

Code: Select all

void
cs_user_parameters(cs_domain_t   *domain)
{
  cs_field_set_key_double(CS_F_(t), cs_field_key_id("turbulent_schmidt"), 0.9);
}
behavier of scalar transport in two simulations are completely same.
I supposed that behavier of scalar transport should be changed especially in terms of how to spread.

Is there another option that I have to change?

In setup.log, I can see this. Does it works or does this mean temperature = 0.9 (not turbulent_schmidt = 0.9)?

Code: Select all

  Key: "turbulent_schmidt", values per field
  ----
    temperature              0.9

Re: Schmidt number in code saturne

Hello,

The last message means the turbulent Schmidt for the temperature is set to 0.9.

Not sure why you don't have more influence from this parameter in other cases. This can strongly depend on the test case.

In any case, you can/must set the turbulent Schmidt for each transported scalar. The setup.log file allows you to check you really have the desired settings.

Best regards,

Yvan

Re: Schmidt number in code saturne

Hello,

Even if both "Specieas transpiort" and "Thermalmode" are active, I can see that "turbulent_schmidt" is set only for temperature, but not for "scalar1".

Code: Select all

  Key: "alpha_turbulent_flux_id", values per field
  ----

  Key: "turbulent_schmidt", values per field
  ----
    temperature              0.9       

  Key: "gradient_weighting_id", values per field
  ----
Like this, I hope "turbulent_schmidt" also should be set for "scalar1", but I cannot get it.

Code: Select all

  Key: "diffusivity_ref", values per field
  ----
    temperature              0.0249    
    scalar1                  2.16e-05  

  Key: "turbulent_diffusivity_id", values per field
How can I set turbulent_schmidt for scalar1?
You can find setup.log and setup.xml.

Re: Schmidt number in code saturne

Hello,

For scalars, apply the turbulent Schmidt setting to the fields matching those scalars.

There is no equivalent of CS_F_(t) for general scalars, so you can use cs_field_by_name() to access them, using the names you assigned those scalars.

Then repeat this for the different scalars.

In your code, you are still only setting this for the temperature.

Did you check the Doxygen/html documentation reference (https://www.code-saturne.org/cms/sites/ ... _dico.html) explaining how to access different fields ?

Yvan
