Hello guys, I would like to replicate the CFX simulations study in this article but I am not quite sure with what solver settings are they using. There is a section where they mentioned about the solver settings but I am not sure what are they describing.

What is meant by "a coupled multi-grid control-volume-based solver was used to discretize and solve the steady, compressible continuity and Navier-Stokes equations".

And also this sentence The multi-grid based approach employed allowed for accurate calculations of long wavelength effects while the coupled aspect of the solver handled local effects

How can I apply all the settings that is mentioned to the CFX analsysis. Anyone kind to explain the details of it to me? Would appreciate the effort!

p.s. link of the article : https://link.springer.com/article/10...404-009-0452-3 pg 78

The highlighted text corresponds to the ANSYS CFX defaults, i.e. you do not need to search/modify anything.

The only important part you must set is the heat transfer model to use the Total Energy option

Thank your for the prompt reply and clarification!

Hello opaque, I have one more question, there seem to be a sentence in the article mentioning about mesh motion.
" Mesh motion was incorporated in the CFX model to include surface velocity components normal to the boundary."
Do you mind explaining how to apply this condition?

Check in the documentation for mesh deformation.

Keep in mind that a velocity normal to a wall boundary implies a deformation of the domain; therefore, other models must be activated.
