Eighth tutorial (Von Karman vortex street)


Create a parametric Gmsh geometry file and call it for example "model.geo":
Geometry.CopyMeshingMethod = 1 ; Mesh.CharacteristicLengthMax = 0.25 ; NX1 NX2 NX3 NX4 = 21 = 21 = 21 = 151 ; ; ; ; RX1 RX2 RX3 RX4 = = = = 0.95 1.05 1.00 1.01 ; ; ; ; // // // // in front of the cilinder around the cilinder middle of the cilinder behind the cilinder

NY1 = 9 ; RY1 = 1.00 ; NY1b = 13 ; RY1b = 0.98 ; NY2 = 31 ; RY2 = 1.05 ; Z0 SB R F X0 X1 X2 X3 X4 X5 X6 X7 = -0.1 ; // plane = 0.1 ; // dummy size = 1.0 ; // unity radius = 2.0 ; // factor around the cilinder = = = = = = = = -10.0 * R ; -(1+F)* R ; -1.0 * R ; -0.70710678 * R ; 0.70710678 * R ; 1.0 * R ; (1+F)* R ; 60.0 * R ;

Y0 = 0.0 ; Y1 = 0.70710678 * R ;
