Re: 3D Simulation of Laval Nozzle

Hi Peter,
the Reynolds number is in the range of 60000 to 300000

But it seems, that a classical approach by calculating the thrust using some US publicatione e.g. Hodge and Koenig or comaprable Russian publication e.g Kurpatenkov is easier than a CFD simulation of a laval nozzle.
Best Regards Ralf

3D Simulation of Laval Nozzle

Does anybody have an example .sif file for the simulation of a Laval nozzle?
Some recommendation to simulate a Laval Nozzle for a Organic Rankine application with probably Mach 2 for gases like pentane or toluol are welcome.
Thanks a lot
Regards Ralf

Problems with Elements

Does anybody has an idea whether this 706 will be implemented? Currently I can not work around this problem whit p:2 oder higher order , because I run then into memory allocation problems Thanks a lot Best regards Ralf ERROR:: ElementInfo: Bubbles for element: 706 are not implemented.
