k-omega 模型的网格无关性验证
-
各位老师,大家好!我用标准的 k-omega 模型计算了一个平面自由射流(plane free jet)的案例,分别采用了 4 种不同的网格计算。
网格信息如下,
边界条件使用 fluent 常用的设置方式。
离散格式如图,
计算的残差,mesh 1 和 mesh 2 的 continuity 在 3e-3 左右,其他物理量的残差各异,且无法小于 1e-6。mesh 3 和 mesh 4 的 continuity 在 3e-6 到 6e-6 左右,其他物理量的残差小于 1e-6。
但是这 4 种网格的计算结果并没有显示出网格无关性。结果如图所示,
继续加密的 mesh 5 也没有呈现网格无关性。而 k-epsilon 模型非常容易达到网格无关性,mesh 1 到 mesh 4 的结果几乎没有区别。
请教各位熟悉湍流模型的老师,k-omega 模型如何达到网格无关性。 -
@random_ran 老师您可以给一些意见吗?

Sorry I had hard time to type Chinese.
Thanks for sharing this. Your finding is consistent with what I've
read this in Wilcox's book (P98).In free shear flow, k-epsilon model is unaffected by the numerical
value of $k$ and $\epsilon$, but k-omega is very sensitive to the
choice of $\omega$.But the book does not provide any suggestions on how to achieve mesh
independence on k-omega model.Speaking to mesh independence study. The idea is simple: refining the
mesh at the region with high gradient. In reality, it depends on
researchers to define where are these regions. Even in the simple
context like flow over a circular cylinder. Different people choose
different types of the computational domain, different strategies to
generate the mesh, different parameters to build the block.There are something I would investigate:
- continue refine the mesh in the "slot exit"
- expand the computational domain
- expand the "slot exit" region, especially where the shear layers
are. - use unsteady solver
- try LES if you have computational resource

@random_ran 我还有一个想法。书上都说 standard k-omega 模型是一个高雷诺数模型。我图上测试的是 Re=3000 的结果,无法达到网格无关解。我另外测试了一个 Re=16500 的结果,相同的网格,居然可以达到网格无关解。
