Y plus not a Pre set variable

Willb · February 9, 2017, 12:01

Hi All,

I have been using CFX and want to plot y plus values against x displacement. However yplus doesn't appear to be in the preset variables list. I find this strange as it is commonly used in cfd and when I have used fluent it has already been defined. When I have looked online and in the manual the impression is given that it should be there. Will I need to define it myself or am I missing something? I've attached a picture of my list of variables.

Thanks

You do not appear to have any of the turbulence variables in that list. It looks like you did a laminar simulation. y+ does not exist for laminar simulations.
