Comparing the wedge and symmetry boundary condition in OpenFOAM for a laminar pipe flow simulation using the icoFoam solver
Objective: INTRODUCTION: In this project, we will be focusing on a laminar pipe flow simulation for a geometrically reduced model with two boundary conditions - wedge and symmetry. The pipe is reduced to a section with a central angle as shown below. The flow is to be simulated at `Re = 2100` with the fluid as water. We assume a…
