How to find order of the scheme

madhunitturi · April 11, 2007, 05:43

Hai,

I am new to this discussion group. I want to know how I can find out the order of the scheme.

I am using simpleFoam solver to solve Steady-state incompressible, turbulent flow of non-Newtonian fluids.

Can any one help me how I know the order of the scheme.

Thanks, madhu

You may take a look in the documentation: Numerical Schemes

Hai Dragos Moroianu,

Thank you for your reply.

I would like to know in OpenFOAM is there any possibility to find order of the simpleFoam solver, I mean by plotting convergence behaviour with differnt grid sizes...etc

regards,
Madhu

Hy Madhu,
I am not aware of any OpenFOAM utility that does that, if this is what you mean. But why don't you do this asymptotic study as you would do it with any other software?
