The type of boundary face:itypfb=iparoi

Post by Gareth_HHU »

Hello!

I saw from the Code_Saturne_user's guide (6.4.1 on Page 56) that:
"If itypfb=iparoi: smooth solid wall face,impermeable and with friction".
What's the meaning of 'smooth wall with friction'? Or it is just a printing error ('with friction' to 'without friction')?

Best wishes

Hello,

With friction means a zero-slip condition in laminar cases and a wall-law using wall models. "frictionn-less" would be symmetry instead of wall.

Best regards,
