Code of the Week #33: type symmetryPlane

#201920

symmetryPlane 是在 CFD 仿真分析中经常用到的一个边界,对于标量和向量场,均可以指定为 symmetryPlane. 如:

boundaryA
{
    type         symmetryPlane;
}

symmetryPlane 的四个参数来自于 transformFvPatchField.C,但是其中的 snGrad() 和 snGradTransformDiag() 则是来自于 symmetryPlaneFvPatchField.C:

 template<class Type>
 Foam::tmp<Foam::Field<Type>>
 Foam::symmetryPlaneFvPatchField<Type>::snGrad() const
 {
     vector nHat(symmetryPlanePatch_.n());
 
     const Field<Type> iF(this->patchInternalField());
 
     return
         (transform(I - 2.0*sqr(nHat), iF) - iF)
        *(this->patch().deltaCoeffs()/2.0);
 }
 
 
 template<class Type>
 void Foam::symmetryPlaneFvPatchField<Type>::evaluate(const Pstream::commsTypes)
 {
     if (!this->updated())
     {
         this->updateCoeffs();
     }
 
     vector nHat(symmetryPlanePatch_.n());
 
     const Field<Type> iF(this->patchInternalField());
 
     Field<Type>::operator=
     (
         (iF + transform(I - 2.0*sqr(nHat), iF))/2.0
     );
 
     transformFvPatchField<Type>::evaluate();
 }
 
 
 template<class Type>
 Foam::tmp<Foam::Field<Type>>
 Foam::symmetryPlaneFvPatchField<Type>::snGradTransformDiag() const
 {
     vector nHat(symmetryPlanePatch_.n());
 
     const vector diag
     (
         mag(nHat.component(vector::X)),
         mag(nHat.component(vector::Y)),
         mag(nHat.component(vector::Z))
     );
 
     return tmp<Field<Type>>
     (
         new Field<Type>
         (
             this->size(),
             transformMask<Type>
             (
                 //pow<vector, pTraits<Type>::rank>(diag)
                 pow
                 (
                     diag,
                     pTraits<typename powProduct<vector, pTraits<Type>::rank>
                     ::type>::zero
                 )
             )
         )
     );
 }

transformFvPatchField.C 里面的代码:

 template<class Type>
 Foam::tmp<Foam::Field<Type>>
 Foam::transformFvPatchField<Type>::valueInternalCoeffs
 (
     const tmp<scalarField>&
 ) const
 {
     return pTraits<Type>::one - snGradTransformDiag();
 }
 
 
 template<class Type>
 Foam::tmp<Foam::Field<Type>>
 Foam::transformFvPatchField<Type>::valueBoundaryCoeffs
 (
     const tmp<scalarField>&
 ) const
 {
     return
         *this
       - cmptMultiply
         (
             valueInternalCoeffs(this->patch().weights()),
             this->patchInternalField()
         );
 }
 
 
 template<class Type>
 Foam::tmp<Foam::Field<Type>>
 Foam::transformFvPatchField<Type>::gradientInternalCoeffs() const
 {
     return -this->patch().deltaCoeffs()*snGradTransformDiag();
 }
 
 
 template<class Type>
 Foam::tmp<Foam::Field<Type>>
 Foam::transformFvPatchField<Type>::gradientBoundaryCoeffs() const
 {
     return
         snGrad()
       - cmptMultiply(gradientInternalCoeffs(), this->patchInternalField());
 }

对称面的 snGrad 为

[(\mathbf{I}-2\sqrt{\hat{n}})\varphi_c - \varphi_c]\times\frac{\text{deltaCoeffs()}}{2}

snGradTransformDiag 为

(\hat{n})^0

所以,symmetryPlane 边界的四个系数为

Coefficient function Expression
A_1 valueInternalCoeffs 1-\hat{n}
B_1 valueBoundaryCoeffs \varphi_c - (1-\hat{n})\cdot\phi_c
A_2 gradientInternalCoeffs -\text{deltaCoeffs()} \hat{n}
B_2 gradientBoundaryCoeffs [(\mathbf{I}-2\sqrt{\hat{n}})\varphi_c - \varphi_c]\times\frac{\text{deltaCoeffs()}}{2} + (\text{deltaCoeffs()} \hat{n})\cdot\varphi_c

请问nHat表示什么?是怎么得到的 ?

nHat 表示面上的单位法向量,初始化(定义)为 symmetryPlanePatch_.n()
