3.8.1 Automatic Initialization of the Solution and Case Modification (Section 26.15)

Figure 26.15.3 should be replaced with the following:

The following sentence should be added to the end of the paragraph that begins, "If you decide to make no modifications...'':

  When entering more than one text command in a single Commands field, begin each text command with a /, as shown in Figure 26.15.3.

The following note should be added after the paragraph that begins, "If you decide to make no modifications...'':

Note that some text commands require arguments (e.g., numbers, file names, yes/no responses), which are requested through follow-up prompts in the console. When entering such text commands in the Commands field of the Case Modification tab, be sure to include your responses to the prompts. If you do not include these responses, the associated command will not be executed (unless it is a yes/no question, in which case ANSYS FLUENT will use yes by default).

The numbered list that describes the settings shown in Figure 26.15.3 should be changed to the following:

1.   The default initial values for initialization are computed from the velocity-inlet zone inlet-6.

2.   The iteration count is set to 0 (in all situations) and the solution is initialized.

3.   The calculation is run for 100 iterations or until convergence.

4.   The Courant number is set to 3.5.

5.   The calculation continues for 75 iterations or until convergence.

6.   The discretization scheme for turbulent kinetic energy is set to second order upwind, and the Courant number is set to 2.5.

7.   The calculation continues for 1000 iterations or until convergence.
