The DESModelRegions
function object computes an indicator field for detached eddy simulation (DES) turbulence calculations, where the values the indicator mean:
0 = Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RAS) regions 1 = Large eddy simulation (LES) regions
The DESModelRegions
function object can only be executed for DES simulations.
Operand | Type | Location |
---|---|---|
input | - | - |
output file | dat | $FOAM_CASE/postProcessing/<FO>/<time>/<file> |
output field | volScalarField | $FOAM_CASE/<time>/<outField> |
Example of the DESModelRegions
function object by using functions
sub-dictionary in system/controlDict
file:
DESModelRegions1 { // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable) type DESModelRegions; libs (fieldFunctionObjects); // Optional entries (runtime modifiable) result DESField; // Optional (inherited) entries writePrecision 8; writeToFile true; useUserTime true; region region0; enabled true; log true; timeStart 0; timeEnd 1000; executeControl timeStep; executeInterval 1; writeControl timeStep; writeInterval 1; }
where the entries mean:
Property | Description | Type | Required | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
type | Type name: DESModelRegions | word | yes | - |
libs | Library name: fieldFunctionObjects | word | yes | - |
result | Name of DES indicator field | word | no | <FO> |
