3D Square cylinder - Vortex shedding and turbulence modeling

Vortex shedding 3D

In this tutorial, you will learn how to setup turbulent cases. We will use RANS and LES models, and we will take a look at the results obtained using different turbulence models. You will learn about,

  • 3D case setup
  • RANS models
  • LES models
  • Post processing turbulent cases
  • Initialization of a LES case using a RANS solution
  • Mapping the solution from a coarse mesh to a finer mesh
  • Setting the right numerics
  • Scripting, plotting, and sampling


You can download the case files at the following link.
