Re: Variable Model Mesh in Transient Simulation

Hi Peter, Thanks for your reply Attached is a figure of what I am trying to simulate. The top picture with the freeze lining is run as a steady state simulation, with the results used as the starting point for the transient response. The bottom is what I would like the mesh to look like for the tran...

Variable Model Mesh in Transient Simulation

Hi, I am modelling the lining of a copper smelter, which in effect is a block of copper with embedded cooling pipes. On the process side there is often a build up of slag material known as a freeze lining. My specific problem of interest is the transient response of the copper block to this freeze l...

K-Epsilon convergence issues

Hi all, I am a newbie to Elmer, and have been trying to get the K-Epsilon turbulence model to converge. I have tried to apply modified boundary conditions from the step test case to 3D problems, as well as examples from these forums, with no success in converging the simulation. I have gone back to ...
