Sod's shock tube

Shock tube

In this tutorial, we simulate the sod's shock tube. You will learn about,

  • Running transient high-speed compressible flow simulations.
  • Field initialization.
  • Setting the thermophysical properties for the working fluid.
  • Setting a robust numeric for compressible-supersonic flow simulations.
  • Adjusting the PIMPLE loop to improve accuracy.
  • Sampling and plotting
