    externalWallHeatFluxTemperature,将q设为0.

    不过我用这个BC加恒定热流密度,后处理用wallheatflux计算,发现有个min/max区间,integral的值比应该注入的能量少0.3W(48.8W VS 48.5W),不知道这是否正常。

    (
    fvm::laplacian(rUA, p) == fvc::div(phi)
    );
    pEqn.setReference(pRefCell, pRefValue);
    pEqn.solve();
    Correct the flux
    if (nonOrth == nNonOrthCorr)
    {
    phi -= pEqn.flux();

    OpenFOAM手册第六章讲后处理。所有的数据都在文本里存着,所以这个后处理更像是取样(sample)。
    用命令把速度数据提成单个文件,用其他后处理软件读取画图。
    或者把扩展名改成cvs就可以用excel打开。在excel或者matlab里画。

    如果OpenFOAM自带的命令满足不了你的需求。就搜linux上的文本处理软件,根据数据的特征(位置特征、前后缀特征)提取。

    个人感觉fvPatchField是记录定义在网格体中心(cell center)的变量比如U在计算域边界上的值。fvsPatchField是记录定义在网格面中心(face center of cell)的变量比如phi,在计算域边界上的值。

    new cannot satisfy memory request. This does not necessarily mean you have run out of virtual memory. It could be due to a stack violation caused by e.g. bad use of pointers or an out of date shared library

    如果你遇到这个问题,一种解决方式是把你的求解器重新编译一下,可能是bad use of out of date shared library。原因是你的库重新写了一些代码并重新编译了,但求解器没跟进

    好吧!我先自己回复下自己。在稀疏矩阵存储中,通用有两种格式,如下矩阵

    A = [ a00 a01 0 0 0 a11 a12 0 a20 0 a22 0 a30 0 0 a33];

    引用一篇博士论文 CRS scheme stores the non-zero elements the matrix in left-to-right and top-to-bottom order in vector v (row-wise storge). 存储格式如下

    v = [a00, a01, a11,a12,a20,a22,a30,a33] cI = [0,1,1,2,0,2,0,3] rI = [0,1,1,2,0,2,0,3]

    但是在openfoam中,不是这么存储的
    openfoam是一种 LDU 格式 对角线 lowerAddr() upperAddr()

    A = [ d0 u0 u1 0 0 0 l0 d1 u2 0 0 0 0 l1 l2 d2 u4 u5 . . . ] l = [l0 l1 l2 ...] d = [d0 d1 d2 d3 d4 ...] u = [u0 u1 u2 u3 ...] L = [0 0 1 1 2 2 3 ...] U = [1 2 2 3 3 4 4 ..]

    具体可参见lduAddressing.H 头文件
    因为计算流体力学中,大部分矩阵都是对称(因为一个internal face对应两个体)除了特别的边界条件外,基本上都是对称矩阵。而矩阵对角元素就更好求了,大部分情况直接把该行相加就得到主对角元素。这种sparse matrix设计是符合cfd计算原理的,但是我的问题还是没解决。看到相关资料分享一下。
    稀疏矩阵也分好多种,openfoam中的renumberMesh就是尽量保证在是多对角阵。
    谢谢!

    @东岳 第一次发帖求助,就能得到东岳老师的回复,真的非常感谢!
    (1)是根据laplacianFOAM稍微改了下的求解器,但是如果是探针probe的话是可以运算出结果的。那cellSource不运行function的话,我需要怎么改下求解器吗
    (2)还想请教下,算例边界条件设置的问题,左图是压力,右图是温度。
    左图压力上下边界条件均为zero flux,右侧问题上下右边界条件为zero conductive flux。对于zero flux和zero conductive flux,边界条件是不是应设置为symmetryPlane,还是zeroGradient。我计算出的结果差别很大,不知道问题出在哪里,所以想确定下是不是我边界条件设置的不对。
