Dear PyFR developers I have a question regarding regarding the precision of the interpolation and gradient operators of the FR/SD methods in *hexahedral *meshes. Let's say that I initialize a variable in the solution points using a general polynomial expression $f$: $f(x, y, z) = (x + y + z)^p$ ...

Hi guys! My Airfoil simulation is running, and everything looks good. However, when opening it in ParaView i only have NaN values. I checked my simulation by printing the forces on the airfoil (soln-plugin-fluidforce-airfoil), and they are all NaN. I have uploaded my case, and i am very ...

Dear PyFR developers, My colleague and I would like to setup two separate projects with PyFR: 1 external flow over a detailed car geometry, 2 internal incompressible flow through pipe bends with strong buoyancy. I have asked about the latter before, although never managed to run appropriate ...

Hi PyFR community, I am trying to recreate the computations from Park (2017) and Witherden (2020) on a NACA 0021 airfoil in deep stall. I run into an issue almost immediately during the low-order (P1) start ...

Dear PyFR developers, I am trying to access data from multiple storage registers (time levels) in the solver's point-wise kernels. For scal_upts, I currently pass the id of a register of interest to the system.rhs() method, then use that id to set the active matrix of a "scal_upts_old" bank, ...

Hi all, I would like to implement a basic Algebraic Wall Model in PyFR. The model consists of 2 simple equations for the turbulent boundary layer: one for the shear stress and another for the heat flux (in case of an isothermal BC). As a 1st attempt, we can restrict the Wall Model to probe the ...

Hi guys. As a part of my master thesis i am simulating flow on an airfoil (90 deg) in openfoam. I also want to compare my results with pyfr (3rd order). Somehow, my setup at the present moment wont start to simulate. I am using Ubuntu on a Windows computer (through Oracle Virtual Box). My ...

Hi guys! I am new to PyFR and was trying to run the tutorial case called 2D Couette Flow. This works fine, the only problem is that the simulation is estimated to spend 80 hours. This should be a simple 2D simulation, and it should be done in less then 10minutes i assume. I use a very strong ...

I followed the list of dependencies that was required and installed through anaconda. Then I created PyFR from source. I linked cblas in the .ini file "cblas = C:\Users\{Username}\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Library\include\openblas" then started running this command: "pyfr run -b openmp ...

Hi All, I'm a new user of PyFR. I started by running the 2D benchmark cases provided with the source files and then moved up to the supplementary materials of journal publications. I'm currently running the 3D sd7003 case, files are attached. At first, I am using p1 to initialize my domain. ...

Hello everyone, I am still running the case I was mentioning in the last 2 post on this mailing list, i.e. high reynolds (3e6) 2D incompressible flow over the ls417. I have problems since the results, in particular the k coming out of the results, are quite different from the one computed using ...

## Latest Release

PyFR 1.9.0:

• Improved strong scaling.
• Added support for Gmsh v4.1.
• Fixed performance issue with OpenCL backend.

Postdoctoral Position - GPU Accelerated High-Order Computational Fluid Dynamics
Summary: A fully funded Postdoctoral position is currently available. The project, will involve development of PyFR, an open-source high-order massively-parallel cross-platform CFD solver, as well as its application to solve a range of challenging unsteady flow problems. Candidates should hold, or expect to obtain, a PhD in a numerate discipline from a world-leading university.
