2D 30p30n#
This example demonstrates the configuration and execution of a steady-state simulation for aerodynamic analysis of the 2D 30p30n multi-element airfoil using the Flow360 Python API. The process encompasses geometry import, automated mesh generation with multiple refinement strategies, specification of simulation parameters including the Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model, and definition of desired outputs before case submission via the Project
interface.
Notes#
The
AutomatedFarfield
is configured withmethod="quasi-3d"
to establish appropriate farfield conditions for a 2D simulation within a 3D mesh framework, utilizing slip walls on symmetry planes.Multiple mesh refinement types (
UniformRefinement
via cylindrical zones,SurfaceRefinement
,SurfaceEdgeRefinement
) are employed to control mesh resolution near the airfoil components and critical geometric features like leading and trailing edges.Turbulent flow is modeled using the Spalart-Allmaras model, configured via
fl.SpalartAllmaras
.
