Hello Foamers
I am running a case in OF3.0.1, already solved in OF2.3. I just noticed that the syntax for some schemes changed in the fvSchemes. The fvSchemes has be to be edited to start the simulation. The old fvSchemes file (OF.2.3) : Code:
divSchemes { ... div((nuEff*dev(T(grad(U))))) Gauss linear; ... } Code:
divSchemes { ... div((nuEff*dev2(T(grad(U))))) Gauss linear; ... } Could this change effect the results? What are the difference between the using of dev2 and dev. Thanks in advance for your help. |

As far as I have found, it is literally just a naming convention to more accurately reflect what is actually happening to the variables/constants when calculating the effective viscous stress.

Diffrence between OF2.x and OF3.x and later is the Change of the structure for turbulence model that have been unified between Compressible and incompressible flow. That lead to a Change in the additional "stabilization" term in incompressible flow with dev2 instead of dev.
Would you find here some calculation that explain dev and dev2 difference and their implication in the equation solved. My simple calculation is for the stress Tensor, with stokes hypothesis: with and and we retrieve the compressible Navier Stoke equation. Recalling For incompressible and compressible flow formulation in OF3.x and OF4.x. The dev2 use 2/3 factor but it is to lead to 1/3 factor in the stress Tensor for the part with the Before, with So As I said, the previous implementation for incompressible flow we had But the in converged flow, so as you said it would be a stabilization term and for compressible flow as expected for Navier stoke equation for compressible Now Incompressible and compressible flow have been write to use dev2 in the turbulence model so But we don't get how is impacted the stability/accurancy by the formulation for incompressible with 1/3 instead of the previous 2/3 By the way, don't be worry if your old case file with the new OpenFOAM3.x and OpenFOAM4.x says Code:
keyword div((nuEff*dev2(T(grad(U))))) is undefined in dictionary |
