I am trying to simulate a situation where a big piece of blade first rotates for about half a circle around the engine axis and then is released at a certain point. Its similar to blade-out. Need to calculate trajectory of the piece. I am doing proof of concept so dealing with coarse mesh of around 1.6M mesh cells as of now. I have managed to get the rotation part right, using the 1DOF rotation restriction about specified axis. Works as expected. But as soon as I switch to the release motion where I make the rotation velocity zero and remove 1DOF restriction, keep the linear velocities, specify inertial tensor about the current CG location, the simulation diverges in 2 time steps. I see that its the angular velocities which always run into millions of rad\/sec and make the run diverge with excessively high temperature, viscocity ratio and rasiduals. I have tried everything. Reduced time step as low as 1e-10, switch on Solution Stabilisation and Implit mesh update for every iteration etc. Every single time it diverges with same error – runaway anglular velocities in second time step. The only thing that stops the run from diverging is to increase the Moment of Inertia values by 5-10x. Then the angular velocities remain low. I have checked and double checked the Inertia tensor values, they are correct (taken from LS-Dyna). If I run the simulation for say 100 time steps with 10x the actual MOI, and then change the MOI values to the actual, the run again diverges in 2-3 time steps. <\/p>\n
I am not able to figure out what is wrong with the simulation. I am using Pressure based coupled solver, default solver settings and discritization methods and so on.<\/p>\n
My issue is similar to the one in this thread – \/forum\/forums\/topic\/moment-of-inertia-issue\/<\/p>\n
However, switching on the Implicit Update has not helped in my case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-368314","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-fluent-cfd-ansys-1","topic-tag-6dof-solver","topic-tag-dynamic-mesh","topic-tag-moment-of-inertia","topic-tag-overset-mesh"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["151090","13659"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.218.93.205"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["311"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["368314"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["13659","151090"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["368544"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["368544"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-05-24 15:20:51"]},"test":"nilesh-ranege-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/368314","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/368314\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=368314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
