October 15, 2013, 17:16	simpleFoam head loss in a pipe	#1
lean_p New Member Join Date: Sep 2013 Posts: 1 Rep Power: 0	Hi, i'm working in the university with CFD, and i'm new user in OpenFOAM. I have a problem with a simpleFoam case. The case has the next data: D(diameter)=0,2 m v(velocity)=1,5 m/s L(lenght)=10 m p(pressure outlet)=200000 Pa fluid: water I ran the case with simpleFoam, and I calculated the head loss with the traditionally method, and both of results aren't similar. With OpenFoam: head loss=1500 Pa With traditionally method: head loss=806 Pa Can someone help me to see what i'm doing bad? I'll be so grateful!
