Re: Modelling thermal contact

Hi, there is an example of such a case in source distribution in folder "fem/tests/HeatGap". Firstly, you need to define the contact boundary as having double nodes using ElmerGrid option '-discont id' (for example) , as in ElmerGrid 2 2 mesh -discont 1 if you have a Elmer mesh files is 'm...

Re: Navier-Stokes equations

Hi, a few comments on the 'grad p' discretization: In addition to pressure not being integrated by parts, the (incompressible) continuity equations IS integrated by parts. These changes have effect on the boundary conditions, as opposed to the default stuff: - pressure Dirichlet boundary conditions ...

Re: Reference Pressure

Hi, you should usually set the "Reference Pressure" when dealing with compressible flows. An alternative is to set "initial" and "external" pressure values such that absolute pressure values may be used to compute the density values. It will, however, usually be benefic...

Re: Run Time Error

OK,

could you post a test case?

Alternatively you could try a more recent ElmerSolver version, maybe this would
work for you:

or compile ElmerSolver from the svn trunk/ sources ?

The version number should be visible in the banner when ElmerSolver start...

Re: Interpolation onto reference grid

Hi Martina, one (addmittedly somewhat "hackish") way that works for me: To interpolate a scalar field "Poison" from mesh "a" to mesh "b", with mesh "a" having results in file "test.result" you could use a small solver and sif files below. (...
