Hello,

I would like to program (Fortran) the launder& sharma model in starcd.

Can somebody help me ? which subroutines ?

Sorkep and vistur ?

All the best

As far as I remeber, I would say you need both. You need sorkep to include the f1, f2 etc in the production terms of k and e. You need vistur to implement the damping function fu in eddy viscosity.

Hope that helps.

Thank for your comments.

The main problem seems that in tne LS models, there are source terms in the k-e equations with spatial derivation of k and e which are not available in user subroutine commons

best

Yes, you would need to calculate those using the various routines to calculate gradients etc... You will need the necessary subroutines allowing you to calculate these. Contacting STAR CD support system should help with those. Here are some to calculate velocity gradient and scalar gradient,

CALL VELGRD(UG,GU,S,CX,SB,NFONE,KEY,URO,URSI,VISTG,DENG ,TKG,

& VISCLAM,MON,ISTYP)

IF(LSWTCH(60))THEN

CALL GRSCGT

& (FI,10,NBMAX,NCTMAX,DFI,KEY,S,CX,NFONE,SB,MON,ISTY P)

ELSEIF(LSWTCH(33))THEN

CALL GRADSC(FI,10,NBMAX,NCTMAX,DFI,KEY,S,CX,NFONE,MON)

ELSE

CALL GRSCL2(10,FI,KEY,NBMAX,NCTMAX,DFI,CX,S,NFONE,MON,I STYP)

ENDIF

Thank Sheila,

You give me some hope, about the possibility to calculate these gradient.

Sure I will contact the starcd support and maybe take a user subroutine formation

hello sir Iam Malika ; I want to know if you can send me some ofdocumentation about (StarCD , )also the VOF method.
