Tutorial: Creating curved geometry in OpenFOAM.
Script and Narration: Rahul Joshi
Keywords: Video tutorial, CFD, Flow over cylinder, edges, blocks.
Visual Cue | Narration |
Slide 1 | Hello and welcome to the spoken tutorial on creating Curved geometry in OpenFOAM |
Slide 2 : Learning Objectives | In this tutorial I will show you steps for creating a curved geometry in OpenFOAM.
|
Slide 3:
System Requirement |
To record this tutorial I am using
|
Slide 4: System Requirement | The tutorials were recorded using the versions specified in previous slide.
Subsequently the tutorials were edited to latest versions. To install latest system requirements go to Installation Sheet. |
Slide 5:
|
We will create a geometry for flow over cylinder.
|
Open the lid driven cavity blockMeshDict file
|
Open the blockMeshDict file of the previous tutorial.
|
Now create a new blockMeshDict file.
| |
On the desktop
|
Now right click > Create document > Empty file |
Name this as blockMeshDict | Name this as blockMeshDict.
|
Copy the blockMeshDict of Lid driven cavity file from line 0 to line convert to meters | Now you can copy the initial few lines from the lid driven cavity upto convertTometers. |
Copy these lines | Go up copy this upto convertToMeters. |
Paste in the new blockMeshDict file | Copy this and paste it in the new blockMeshDict file. |
Change the geometry to point one to one | Change the convert to meters from point one to one. |
Geometry is in meters | As our geometry is in meters we will keep this as one. |
Press enter | Now press Enter.
|
Refer to the figure of flow over cylinder in slide 4
|
After this you need to enter the co-ordinates of the geometry in vertices.
Let me switch back to the slides. Note that the points should be ordered in such a way starting from 0,1,2,3 and so on, as shown in the figure. Minimize the slides. |
Type vertices after convertTometers | Now type vertices in the blockMeshDict file and press Enter. |
Insert an open bracket.
| |
Enter the co-ordinates as shown in the diagram | Now enter the co-ordinates of points as shown in the diagram. |
Let me switch back to the slides. | |
Refer to the next slide for half semi-circle | For explanation I will use the right half of the semi-circle. |
current blockMeshDict file | Enter the values for the points in the figure starting from zero.
|
Leave some space and enter the co-ordinates of point 0. | |
Point 0 - Insert (0.5 0 0) | Open close bracket and enter (0.5 (space) 0 (space) 0) |
Again leave some space, open close bracket. | |
Point 1- Insert (1 0 0) | Enter co-ordinates for point 1 (1 (space) 0 (space) 0)
|
Leave two vertical spaces, again press Enter.
| |
Leave some space and enter co-ordinates for the point number 4. | |
Point 4 – Insert (0.707 0.707 0) | Open close bracket, enter (0.707 (space) 0.707 (space) 0) |
Press Enter.
| |
Point 5 -Insert (0.353 0.353 0) | Enter the co-ordinates for point 5.
|
Now leave 4 vertical spaces. | |
Enter co-ordinates for point number 9. | |
Vertical spaces | 1 2 3 4 , again press Enter.
|
Point 9 – Insert (0 1 0) | Enter (0 (space) 1 (space) 0), press Enter. |
Leave some space.
| |
Point 10 -Insert (0 0.5 0) | Open close bracket (0 (space) 0.5 (space) 0), press Enter. |
Remaining part of the semi-circle
|
Similarly enter the co-ordinates for remaining points in the geometry.
|
In blockMeshDict file type blocks | Now type blocks and press Enter.
|
Let me switch back to the slides. | |
Slide showing blocks | Block numbers are circled as shown in the figure. |
Now let me switch back to the blockMeshDict file. | |
Enter the type of block here | Leave some space.
|
Enter points for blocks | Now enter the points for the blocks.
Leave some space.
Leave some space. |
SimpleGrading (1 1 1) | This simple grading can be kept as (1 1 1) and press Enter |
Refer to the previous tutorial on simple geometry in openfoam | For creating the blocks please refer to the tutorial on Creating simple geometry in OpenFOAM.
|
Insert close bracket and
|
Now insert a close bracket.
|
Type edges | In the next line, type edges and press Enter.
|
Here you need to enter the points which are the end points of the arc. | |
Enter the arc points | Leave some space and type arc and leave some space.
Let me switch back to the slides. |
Insert end points of the arc
|
In this insert the end points of the arc.
|
Leave some space.
| |
In brackets enter the co-ordinate of any intermediate point in between the two arc points.
| |
Slide 6: for arcs | In the figure you can see that you have to pick up a point in between the two points of the arc. |
In this geometry I have picked up right half of the circle. | |
Slide showing trignometric relations
Sin(theta) and cos(theta) relations |
Using simple geometric relations, you can find the co-ordinates of the intermediate point shown in the semi-circle. |
Repeat the above procedure for the remaining semi-circle | Similarly you can repeat the procedure for rest of the semi-circle geometry. |
Now let me switch back to the blockMeshDict file.
| |
Note that there are more number of arcs in this example. | |
Insert a close bracket.
| |
In the next line after arcs
|
Enter the boundary patches after arcs.
|
Enter boundary | Enter boundary, press Enter.
Insert close bracket semi-colon, press Enter.
|
Type mergePatchPairs
|
Now, in the next line type mergePatchPairs.
|
Press Enter.
| |
Since there are no patches to be merged, this can be kept empty.
| |
Slide 7 :
|
Let me switch back to the slides.
|
Press Ctrl+Alt+t keys | Open a Command terminal. |
Type run and press Enter.
cd tutorials and press Enter cd basic and press Enter cd potentialFoam and press Enter cd cylinder and press enter |
In the command terminal type the path for your case. |
I have already set the path for the tutorial case of flow over cylinder | |
Type blockMesh and press enter | In the terminal type blockMesh for meshing the geometry and press Enter.
|
Slide 8: For OpenFOAM v 5.0
To open cylinder case directory, type the following in your run folder: $cd tutorials/basic/potentialFoam/cylinder
|
|
Type paraFoam and press enter | Now type paraFoam in the terminal and press Enter to view the geometry. |
Let me drag this to the capture area. | |
In the object inspector menu click APPLY button | Now on the left side of object inspector menu click Apply.
|
Scroll down the Object inspector menu. | |
Check and uncheck the mesh field box | Check and uncheck the Mesh field box. |
Demo | You can see different regions of the geometry.
|
For wireframe of the geometry
|
On top of active variable control menu in the drop down menu, change from Surface to Wireframe. |
You can see the wireframe model of the geometry.
| |
Slide 9: Summary | In this tutorial we learnt:
