Hi,
I have a question concerning the managment of time information during a time step. I have the following situation: During one time step from time t_k to time t_k + delta_T, a volScalarField called myfield changes its value according to a partial differential equation PDE1. That's done by using solve( fvm::ddt(myfield) +... ==... ); So now I have the volScalarField myfield at time t_k + delta_T. Now I want to solve to steady state another pde PDE2 for myfield, starting from the myfield at time t_k + delta_T. The steady state solution of PDE2 for myfield should then be used as starting value for the next time step from time t_k + delta_T to time t_k + 2*delta_T using PDE1. Has anyone done something similar or an idea on how to do it? I have tried using subCyclceTime and subCycle, but without success. Thanks |
