Tutorial: Simulating Flow in a Lid Driven Cavity.
Script and Narration : Rahul Joshi
Keywords: Video tutorial,CFD,Lid Driven Cavity,Ghia et.al.
Visual cue | Narration |
Slide 1 | Hello and welcome to the spoken tutorial on Simulating Flow in a Lid Driven Cavity using openfoam |
Slide 2 : Learning Objectives | In this tutorial I will show you
|
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 4:
About Lid Driven Cavity flow |
Lid driven cavity is the most widely used 2D test case for validation of a CFD code. |
Slide 5 : Diagram | This is diagram of Lid Driven Cavity. |
Slide 6: Boundary Conditions | The boundary conditions remain the same.
|
We are solving this for Reynolds no (Re) = 100
| |
Path for lid driven cavity | The path for the Lid Driven Cavity is the same as discussed in the installation tutorial. |
Open a command terminal | Now open a command terminal. |
Press ctrl +Alt+t keys simultaneously on keyboard | To do this, press Ctrl+Alt+t keys simultaneously on your keyboard. |
Path for lid driven cavity in terminal | In the command terminal. |
Type run and press enter | Now type run and press Enter. |
Type cd tutorials and press enter | cd (space) tutorials and press Enter. |
Type cd incompressible and press enter | cd (space) incompressible and press Enter. |
Type cd icoFoam and press enter | cd (space) icoFoam (Note that F here is capital) and press Enter. |
Type cd cavity | cd (space) cavity and press Enter. |
Type ls and press enter | Now type lsand press Enter. |
Three folders 0, constant and system | In the file structure of cavity you will see 3 folders :
0 , constant, and system. |
Type cd constant | Now type cd (space) constant and press Enter. |
Type ls and press enter | Now type ls and press Enter. |
Constant >> polyMesh | The constant folder contains another folder named polymesh.
|
Cd polyMesh and press enter | Now type cd (space) polymesh and press Enter.
|
Type ls | Now type ls and press Enter. |
You can see the blockMeshDict. | |
Type gedit blockMeshDict and press enter | To open the blockMeshDict file, type gedit blockMeshDict.
|
This will open up the blockMeshDict file.
| |
In blockMeshDict file | This contains :
blocking and meshing parameters and boundary patches. |
No patches and arcs in the geometry | Since there are arcs as well as no patches to be merged, edges and mergePatchPairs can be kept empty. |
Now close this. | |
Terminal type cd .. and do this twice | In the command terminal type : cd (space) (dot) (dot) |
You will come back to the cavity folder. | |
Cd system and press enter | Now type cd (space) system and press Enter. |
Type ls and press enter | Now type ls and press Enter.
|
ControlDict
|
controlDict contains control parameters for start/end time.
|
Type cd .. and press enter | Now again type cd (space) (dot dot) and press Enter. |
Cd 0 and press enter | Now type cd ( space ) 0 (zero) and press Enter. |
Now type ls and press Enter. | |
Initial values for bounary | This contains the initial values for boundary conditions like
|
Type cd .. | Type cd ( space ) (dot dot) to return to the cavity folder. |
Mesh the geometry | Now we need to mesh the geometry.
|
Mesh the geometry by typing blockMesh in the terminal. | |
In terminal type blockMesh and press enter | Now type blockMesh (Note that M here is capital).
|
Meshing is done. | |
If there is some error in the blockMesh file, it will be shown in the terminal. | |
Type paraFoam and press enter | To view the geometry, type paraFoam. Note that F here is capital.
|
This will open the ParaView window. | |
Click on apply button | Now on the left hand side of the object inspector menu click on Apply. |
You can see the lid driven cavity geometry.
| |
Check the mesh | Check the mesh by typing checkMesh in the terminal.
|
After the checkMesh command | You can see the the number of cells, skewness and other parameters which are associated with the mesh. |
Let me switch back to the slides. | |
Slide 6: icoFoam | The solver we are using here is icoFoam. |
icoFoam is a Transient solver for incompressible flow of Newtonian fluids. | |
Let me switch back to the terminal. | |
In terminal type icoFoam and press enter | In the terminal type icoFoam.
|
Iterations running will be seen in the terminal window. | |
Type paraFoam and press enter
|
After the solving is done, type paraFoam in the terminal to view the geometry and the results. |
Click on APPLY | On the left hand side of object inspector menu, click on Apply. |
Scroll down in object inspector menu | Now scroll down the properties of objector inspector menu.
|
Check or uncheck these boxes | Check or uncheck these boxes in the mesh part to view the different boundary regions of Lid driven cavity. |
Change from solid color to capital U
|
Now after this,
Now this will show you the initial condition of velocity. |
VCR control on top | Now on top of the ParaView window, you can see the VCR control.
|
Final result of velocity in lid driven cavity | Now this is the final result of velocity for lid driven cavity. |
Toggle on the color legend | Toggle on the color legend by clicking on the top left of the active variable control menu. |
This is the color legend for U velocity. | |
Validation of result | We need to validate the results obtained.
|
Menu > filters > data analysis > plot over line | For this go to Filters > Data Analysis > Plot Over line |
Click on it. | |
You can see the X , Y and Z axis | |
Select the X and Y axis
|
Select the X & Y axis turn by turn.
|
You can see the Pressure and Velocity plots being plotted. | |
For non-dimensional analysis | Since it is a non dimensional analysis, we need to plot the graph for u/U v/s y/L for Reynolds number =100. |
PLot data Line click Y axis and apply | To do this in Plot Data, click on the Y-axis.
|
Plot can be seen
|
You can see the plot.
|
Give an appropriate name to your file. | |
Give a name to the file
|
I will give this as cavity.
|
Now click Ok.
| |
Go to the cavity folder in icoFoam
|
Now go to the cavity folder of openfoam directory.
|
Open it in OpenOffice or LibreOffice spreadsheet. | |
Copy u0 and points 1 and save it another page of spreadsheet | In the LibreOffice spreadsheet copy the U0 (u velocity) and to the right point1 column in another spreadsheet. |
U/U and y/L | Now divide both these columns.
|
PLot the results using chart option
of spreadsheet |
Plot the results in LibreOffice Charts option on top of the menu bar. |
Now let me switch back to the slides. | |
Slide 7 : Lid Driven Cavity (OpenFOAM) | Results obtained will be similar to this figure. |
Slide 8: Ghia et al.(1982) & Fluent | Validate the result obtained on Lid Driven Cavity by : Ghia et al. (1982) and results obtained from Fluent. |
Slide 9:
Summary |
In this tutorial we learnt
|
Slide 10:
Assignment |
As as assignment,
Change some parameters in the lid driven cavity
Plot the results of u/U and y/L |
