2D CFD Code Development with SIMPLER Algorithm and C

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on developing a 2D CFD code for laminar flow using the SIMPLER algorithm in C. The user seeks guidance on grid generation methods and GUI development. A recommended resource for grid generation is Thompson's "Handbook of Grid Generation," with portions available online. The user specifies interest in creating a 2D triangular grid. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the need for resources and advice on specific technical aspects of CFD code development.

Hi,
I like to start writing 2d CFD code for laminar flow using SIMPLER algorithm using c. help me from where i get information abt grid generation methods and GUI. If anyone had written such codes can guide me.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
I don't know jack about GUIs, but as far as grid generation, look no further than Thompson's book titled, Handbook of Grid Generation. In fact, there is a good chunk (older revision IIRC) available online through his Mississippi State website.

What kind of grid are you looking for?
 
Thanks for the input, I am looking for 2d tri grid.
 

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
