FSI - highly distorted elements

Good morning,
I am currently simulating a fluid-structure interaction of a channel driven cavity flow and a plate with pulsatile flow. The velocity profile is sinusoidal. With a sine frequency of 1 Hz, everything worked. But now I raised the frequency to 2 Hz and I get the error highly distorted element every time. The mesh quality of the solid plate and the fluid domain is really good with aspect ratios < 1.3 and element quality > 0.98. What I am wondering about is the huge change in the receiving force within one coupling step: Coupling Iteration 2 RECEIVING FORCE FX SUM = -0.31654E-02 RECEIVING FORCE FY SUM = 6.3474 RECEIVING FORCE FZ SUM = -0.16165E-05 Coupling Iteration 3 RECEIVING FORCE FX SUM = 26551. RECEIVING FORCE FY SUM = -0.32817E+11 RECEIVING FORCE FZ SUM = -0.25715E+06 Can anyone help to find the reason for the errors? I defined the material Aluminum only with density, Young's Modulus and Poisson ratio - is that enough? Thanks in advance! |
