farfield boundary conditon

Hello everyone,

Hope you are doing well.

I found that in code_saturne GUI there is no far-field boundary condition choice. But I need that in simulation of a wind turbine. Is it possible to achieve that in code Saturne? Thank you.

Yan.

Hello,

You can define an inlet (possibly with a given profile) upstream of the turbine, and use symmetry (or free -inlet-outlet conditions) on the sides, with an outlet (or free inlet-outlet) downstream.

We do not have any specific "far-field" boundary type.

Regards,

Yvan

Hi Yvan,

Thank you. I have ran the case as you said. I think it works well.
