Hi,
I changed my solver from central to 1st order upwind scheme and it works fine when my cylinder is stationary. When I tried using higher order schemes, such as 2nd order upwind or GAMMA, I get divergence and erroneous results. I 've some questions when using higher order upwind scheme: 1. do i have to use higher resolution to ensure stability/accuracy? 2. are these schemes stable/accurate at low Re e.g. 100? 3. do i have to use smaller time step? i tried to change the resolution and Re but there's still problems. Hope someone can help. Tks. |
