Note that the base temperature r^2 is not the laminar temperature, and that 1-r^2 is no longer the laminar flow.  To compute the laminar temperature and flow profiles, set i_K=i_M=1, so that only the mean mode k=m=0 is simulated.  This will very quickly approach the laminar temperature and flow profiles.

Installation

If you already have a Fortran compiler, then you only need download the current version (link below), and unpack

 tar -xvvzf Openpipeflow-hp-x.xx.tgz

The Makefile has been set up for gfortran, but compile flags for several compilers are included: g95, gfortran, ifort, pathf90, pgf90.

Next see Getting_started, then try the Tutorial.

Notes on the Heated pipe version

This code will load state files from the 'ordinary' code. It will assume there is no perturbation to the base temperature, r^2; a turbulent flow will quickly mix this up.

Note that the base temperature r^2 is not the laminar temperature profile, and that 1-r^2 is no longer the laminar flow. To compute the laminar temperature and flow profiles, set i_K=i_M=1, so that only the mean mode k=m=0 is simulated. This will very quickly approach the laminar temperature and flow profiles.

Paper on Model

Link to PDF here. Please NOTE that this PDF includes a small but important correction at Figure 3.

Both fixed temperature and fixed heat-flux models are described.
