1 Short description
This turorial case analyzes turbulent backward-facing step flow. Also it compares CFD result with experimental result.
2 Usage
To run this tutorial case, just type:
./Allrun
After the execution it would makes figures listed below.
- res.eps - Initial residual
- profileT.eps - Vertical profile of temperature
- profilek.eps - Vertical profile of turbulent kinetic energy
To clean all files this tutorial makes, just type:
./Allclean
