                                  Week 8 - Simulation of a backward facing step in OpenFOAM

                                  Objective:

                                  OBJECTIVE: To simulate an incompressible laminar viscous flow through the backwards facing step geometry and perform a transient simulation. Case 1-To simulate the flow without using any grading factor (GF =1) Case 2-To simulate the flow with a grading factor (GF=0.2). The cells should be finer near the walls(including…

                                  Objective:

                                  Nozzle: A nozzle is a device designed to control the direction or characteristics of a fluid flow (to increase velocity) as its exists (or enters) an enclosed chamber or pipe. Nozzles are used to control the flow rate, speed,direction,mass,shape and pressure of the stream that emerges from them. For subsonic and sonic…
