Unsteady vorticity transport equation: codes available?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the need for code to reproduce results from an older program that solved the unsteady vorticity transport equation in 2D with constant kinematic viscosity. The user seeks data rather than plots to validate a new code against the old results, specifically for 2-D tank-like geometries with inlets and outlets. They express a preference for existing solutions, such as a Matlab script with plotting capabilities, rather than writing new code. There is a mention of OpenFOAM, but the user believes it does not support the vorticity transport approach. The overall goal is to replicate calculations from an old report for comparison with new findings.

I would like to reproduce results from a much older code to test a new one. I only have the old code's results in the form of plots, not data, but I need data. The older code solves the unsteady vorticity transport equation in 2D with a constant kinematic viscosity term. I'm interested in 2-D tank-like geometries with inlets and pipe-like outlets. The original code uses a finite element method, but I'm not picky.

It would be great not to have to write code to do this. The problem seems straightforward enough that I expected to find codes/applets online, but so far I don't see anything. A Matlab script with plotting capabilities would be great, but I'll try anything. Could anyone help?
 
Have you tried OpenFOAM? Also, why vorticity transport and not NS?
 
Thanks. I want to reproduce calculations from an old report to test some new calculations. As far as I know, OpenFOAM doesn't have this approach.
 

Thread 'Query on Isentropic relationships (such as PV^gamma = constant)'

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...

Thread 'Dry sump pump issue'

I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
