Input Deck File

Below is an example of the inplut file input-deck.par:

  • The first two lines that start with 'restrt...' are the file names for the restart file for the simulation and the next simulation.
  • The next few lines are the changes made to the simulation parameters from the default values e.g nx for the simulation is now 256 rather than 64
  • Please note there must be a space each side of the 'sign' or the parameter will not be changed from the default
  • You can check your input parameters have been changed by looking at the first few lines of 'result', all your changes will be recorded there
  • The input parameters descriptions and their default values are described on pages 15-17 of the manual
  • A copy of this input file can be downloaded here

INPUT DECK FOR BACKWARD FACING STEP/CHANNEL FLOW SIMULATION
ALL VARIABLES MUST BE ENTERED IN LOWER CASE (DEFAULT VALUES ARE LISTED IN "DEFAULT_PARAMETERS" FILE)
i.e. re = 2800.0e0 (there must be space between '=' sign on both sides
