Hello everyone,
Sorry for my not good english, I am on a thesis in final year, and I am new with openFoam. My supervisors ask me for computing for UAV - tricopter and using rotorDisk to model a virtual blade instead of generating a cad model of propellers. My problems: 1) I can't get convergence although I generate a complete mesh + SnappyHexMesh generate mesh for tricopter + 3 rotor disk (cylinder with thickness is 1 cell thick) + Salome generate mesh for only cylinder computational domain. 2) I try to establish rotor coefficients for each rotor disk, but I can't understand much about these rotor parameters. (the origin, the ref.Direction, psi axis). After generating mesh, I have totally 3.4m cells, and 3 rotatingZones with 18137 cells Mesh overall info: Max. aspect ratio : 5.32 Max. skew ness: 3.0059 Non-orthogonality mesh: Max 65/ Average 6.9 Please help me , Thank you guys so much |
