Test 32: Navier-Stokes with Temperature, temperature computed in a solid and a fluid region, periodic manufactured solution and non null pressure, restart from test 31 with interpolation

Introduction

In this example, we check the correctness of the module for interpolation on a thermohydrodynamic problem. The simulation is the next part of test 31 ( \(1\)-periodic in \(z\) manufactured solution). Between test 31 and 32, the mesh is changed and so is the number of processors in the meridian section (1 proc. to 5 proc.). An interpolation step takes place during the debug.

The domain of computation is \(\Omega= \{ (r,\theta,z) \in {R}^3 : (r,\theta,z) \in (0,1) \times [0,2\pi) \times (0,1)\} \). We note \(\Gamma= \partial \Omega\). It is composed of a solid and a fluid subdomain:

\begin{align*} \overline{\Omega} = \overline{\Omega_s} \cup \overline{\Omega_f}.\\ \end{align*}

The subdomains are defined followingly: \(\Omega_s = \{ (r,\theta,z) \in {R}^3 : (r,\theta,z) \in (0,1/2) \times [0,2\pi) \times (0,1)\} \) and \(\Omega_f= \{ (r,\theta,z) \in {R}^3 : (r,\theta,z) \in (1/2,1) \times [0,2\pi) \times (0,1)\} \). We note \(\Gamma_f = \partial \Omega_f\).

We solve the temperature equations:

\begin{align*} \begin{cases} \partial_t T+ \tilde{\bu} \cdot \GRAD T - \DIV (\kappa \GRAD T) &= f_T, \\ T_{|\Gamma} &= T_\text{bdy} , \\ T_{|t=0} &= T_0, \end{cases} \end{align*}

in the domain \(\Omega\). The extended velocity is defined by \(\tilde{\bu} = \bu\) in \(\Omega_f\) and \(0\) in \(\Omega_s\). The diffusivity is a piecewise constant function of space: \(\kappa = \kappa_f\) in \(\Omega_f\) and \(\kappa_s\) in \(\Omega_s\), with \(\kappa_s = 10 \kappa_f\).

We solve the Navier-Stokes equations:

\begin{align*} \begin{cases} \partial_t\bu+\left(\ROT\bu\right)\CROSS\bu - \frac{1}{\Re}\LAP \bu +\GRAD p &= \alpha T \textbf{e}_z + \bef, \\ \DIV \bu &= 0, \\ \bu_{|\Gamma_f} &= \bu_{\text{bdy}} , \\ \bu_{|t=0} &= \bu_0, \\ p_{|t=0} &= p_0, \end{cases} \end{align*}

in the domain \(\Omega_f\). We denote by \(\textbf{e}_z\) the unit vector in the vertical direction.

The data are the source terms \(f_T\) and \(\bef\), the boundary data \(T_\text{bdy}\) and \(\bu_{\text{bdy}}\), the initial data \(T_0\), \(\bu_0\) and \(p_0\). The parameters are the thermal diffusivities \(\kappa_s\) and \(\kappa_f\), the kinetic Reynolds number \(\Re\) and the thermal gravity number \(\alpha\). We recall that these parameters are dimensionless.

Manufactured solutions

We approximate the following analytical solutions:

\begin{align*} T(r,\theta,z,t) & = r^2(r-r_0)^2\sin(2\pi z)(1+\cos(\theta))\cos(t), \\ u_r(r,\theta,z,t) &= -2\pi (r-r_0)^2\cos(2\pi z)(1+\cos(\theta))\cos(t), \\ u_{\theta}(r,\theta,z,t) &= 2\pi (r-r_0)^2\cos(2\pi z)(1+\cos(\theta))\cos(t), \\ u_z(r,\theta,z,t) &= \frac{r-r_0}{r} \sin(2\pi z) ((3r-r_0)(1+\cos(\theta))+(r-r_0)\sin(\theta))\cos(t), \\ p(r,\theta,z,t) &= r^3 \sin(2\pi z) \cos(\theta) \cos(t), \end{align*}

where \(r_0 = 1/2\) is the limit between solid and fluid regions. The velocity is the curl of a vector field, it is thus divergence free. As mentioned, the solution is \(1\)-periodic in \(z\).

The source terms \(f_T, \bef\) and the boundary datas \(T_\text{bdy}, \bu_{\text{bdy}}\) are computed accordingly.

Generation of the mesh

The finite element mesh used for this test is named SOLID_FLUID_20.FEM and has a mesh size of \(0.05\) for the P1 approximation. You can generate this mesh with the files in the following directory: ($SFEMaNS_MESH_GEN_DIR)/EXAMPLES/EXAMPLES_MANUFACTURED_SOLUTIONS/SOLID_FLUID_20. The following image shows the mesh for P1 finite elements.

Information on the file condlim.f90

The initial conditions, boundary conditions and the forcing terms \(\textbf{f}\) in the Navier-Stokes equations and \(f_T\) in the temperature equations are set in the file condlim_test_32.f90, which is identical to condlim_test_31.f90. Here is a description of the subroutines and functions of interest.

  1. The subroutine init_velocity_pressure initializes the velocity field and the pressure at the times \(-dt\) and \(0\) with \(dt\) being the time step. This is done by using the functions vv_exact and pp_exact as follows:
    time = 0.d0
    DO i= 1, SIZE(list_mode)
    mode = list_mode(i)
    DO j = 1, 6
    !===velocity
    un_m1(:,j,i) = vv_exact(j,mesh_f%rr,mode,time-dt)
    un (:,j,i) = vv_exact(j,mesh_f%rr,mode,time)
    END DO
    DO j = 1, 2
    !===pressure
    pn_m2(:) = pp_exact(j,mesh_c%rr,mode,time-2*dt)
    pn_m1 (:,j,i) = pp_exact(j,mesh_c%rr,mode,time-dt)
    pn (:,j,i) = pp_exact(j,mesh_c%rr,mode,time)
    phin_m1(:,j,i) = pn_m1(:,j,i) - pn_m2(:)
    phin (:,j,i) = Pn (:,j,i) - pn_m1(:,j,i)
    ENDDO
    ENDDO
  2. The subroutine init_temperature initializes the temperature at the times \(-dt\) and \(0\) with \(dt\) the time step. This is done by using the function temperature_exact as follows:
    time = 0.d0
    DO i= 1, SIZE(list_mode)
    mode = list_mode(i)
    DO j = 1, 2
    tempn_m1(:,j,i) = temperature_exact(j, mesh%rr, mode, time-dt)
    tempn (:,j,i) = temperature_exact(j, mesh%rr, mode, time)
    ENDDO
    ENDDO
  3. The function vv_exact contains the analytical velocity field. It is used to initialize the velocity field and to impose Dirichlet boundary conditions on the velocity field.
    1. The limit between fluid and solid region is defined:
      REAL(KIND=8) :: r0 = 0.5d0
    2. The pi parameter is defined (as in each following subroutine).
      REAL(KIND=8) :: pi = 3.1415926535897932d0
    3. We construct the radial and vertical coordinates r, z.
      r = rr(1,:)
      z = rr(2,:)
    4. We define the velocity field depending of its TYPE (1 and 2 for the component radial cosine and sine, 3 and 4 for the component azimuthal cosine and sine, 5 and 6 for the component vertical cosine and sine) and of its mode m as follows:
      IF (TYPE==1) THEN
      IF ((m==0).OR.(m==1)) THEN
      vv = -2*pi*(r-r0)**2*cos(t)*cos(2*pi*z)
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
      ELSE IF (TYPE==3) THEN
      IF ((m==0).OR.(m==1)) THEN
      vv = 2*pi*(r-r0)**2*cos(t)*cos(2*pi*z)
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
      ELSE IF (TYPE==5) THEN
      IF ((m==0).OR.(m==1)) THEN
      vv = (r-r0)*cos(t)*sin(2*pi*z)/r * (3*r-r0)
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
      ELSE IF (TYPE==6) THEN
      IF (m==1) THEN
      vv = (r-r0)*cos(t)*sin(2*pi*z)/r * (r-r0)
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
      where \(t\) is the time. It is important to specify the null types or modes to avoid nonsense results.
  4. The function pp_exact contains the analytical pressure.
    1. We construct the radial and vertical coordinates r, z.
      r = rr(1,:)
      z = rr(2,:)
    2. The pressure is non null only on the cosine compound and for the first mode.
      IF ((TYPE==1).AND.(m==1)) THEN
      vv = r**3*sin(2*pi*z)*cos(t)
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
  5. The function temperature_exact contains the analytical temperature. It is used to initialize the temperature and to impose Dirichlet boundary condition on the temperature.
    1. The limit between fluid and solid region is defined:
      REAL(KIND=8) :: r0 = 0.5d0
    2. We construct the radial and vertical coordinates r, z.
      r = rr(1,:)
      z = rr(2,:)
    3. We define the temperature depending on its TYPE (1 and 2 for cosine and sine) and on its mode as follows:
      IF ((TYPE==1).AND.((m==0).OR.(m==1))) THEN
      vv = r**2*(r-r0)**2*sin(2*pi*z)*cos(t)
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
  6. The function source_in_temperature computes the source term \(f_T\) of the temperature equations.
    1. An array kappa for the value of the diffusivity at each node must be declared.
      REAL(KIND=8), DIMENSION(SIZE(rr,2)) :: vv, r, z, kappa
    2. The limit between fluid and solid region is defined:
      REAL(KIND=8) :: r0 = 0.5d0
    3. We construct the radial and vertical coordinates r, z.
      r = rr(1,:)
      z = rr(2,:)
    4. The kappa array is filled based on the data file. The solid diffusivity is used for the region \(r \le r_0\) and the fluid diffusivity is used in the fluid region \(r > r_0\).
      DO i=1,SIZE(rr,2)
      IF (r(i).LE.r0) THEN
      kappa(i) = inputs%temperature_diffusivity(1)
      ELSE
      kappa(i) = inputs%temperature_diffusivity(2)
      END IF
      END DO
    5. The source term \( f_T = \partial_t T+ \tilde{\bu} \cdot \GRAD T - \kappa \LAP T \) is defined in two parts. Firstly, we define the part \( \partial_t T - \kappa \LAP T \):
      IF (TYPE==1) THEN
      IF (m==0) THEN
      vv = - (-2*((2*pi**2*r**4 + 9*r*r0 - 4*pi**2*r**3*r0 - 2*r0**2 + 2*r**2*(-4.d0 + pi**2*r0**2))*kappa*Cos(t)) &
      + r**2*(r - r0)**2*Sin(t))*Sin(2*pi*z)
      ELSE IF (m==1) THEN
      vv = -(-((4*pi**2*r**4 + 16*r*r0 - 8*pi**2*r**3*r0 - 3*r0**2 + r**2*(-15.d0 + 4*pi**2*r0**2))*kappa*Cos(t)) &
      + r**2*(r - r0)**2*Sin(t))*Sin(2*pi*z)
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
      Secondly, we add the part \( \tilde{\bu} \cdot \GRAD T \), which is different from 0 only in the fluid:
      IF (TYPE==1) THEN
      IF (m==0) THEN
      DO i=1,size(rr,2)
      IF (r(i)>r0) THEN
      vv(i) = vv(i) + (-3*pi*r(i)*(r(i) - r0)**4*Cos(t)**2*Sin(4*pi*z(i)))/2.d0
      END IF
      END DO
      ELSE IF (m==1) THEN
      DO i=1,size(rr,2)
      IF (r(i)>r0) THEN
      vv(i) = vv(i) - 2*pi*r(i)*(r(i) - r0)**4*Cos(t)**2*Sin(4*pi*z(i))
      END IF
      END DO
      ELSE IF (m==2) THEN
      DO i=1,size(rr,2)
      IF (r(i)>r0) THEN
      vv(i) = vv(i) - 0.5*pi*(r(i)*(r(i) - r0)**4*Cos(t)**2*Sin(4*pi*z(i)))
      END IF
      END DO
      END IF
      END IF
      In the second part, the array is filled cell by cell because we have to test if the node is in the fluid region.
  7. The function source_in_NS_momentum computes the source term \(\alpha T \textbf{e}_z+\bef\) of the Navier-Stokes equations.
    1. The coefficient \(\alpha\) of the Boussinesq force is declared and the limit between fluid and solid region is defined:
      REAL(KIND=8) :: alpha, r0 = 0.5d0
    2. The coefficient \(\alpha\) is defined based on the data file.
      alpha = inputs%gravity_coefficient
    3. We construct the radial and vertical coordinates r, z.
      r = rr(1,:)
      z = rr(2,:)
    4. We construct the first part of the source term containing the Boussinesq force \(\alpha T \be_z\) and the piece of \(\bef\) that cancels it.
      IF (TYPE==5) THEN
      vv = alpha*(opt_tempn(:,1,i) - temperature_exact(1,rr,mode,time))
      ELSE IF (TYPE==6) THEN
      vv = alpha*(opt_tempn(:,2,i) - temperature_exact(2,rr,mode,time))
      ELSE
      vv = 0.d0
      END IF
      The array opt_temp is an input argument and produces the Boussinesq force. The temperature_exact function is defined in the same file and leads to the cancelling term of \(\bef\).
    5. The rest of the source term \( \partial_t\bu+\left(\ROT\bu\right)\CROSS\bu - \frac{1}{\Re}\LAP \bu +\GRAD p \) is then added. It depends on the TYPE (1-6) and the mode (0-2).

All the other subroutines present in the file condlim_test_32.f90 are not used in this test. We refer to the section Fortran file condlim.f90 for a description of all the subroutines of the condlim file.

Outputs and value of reference

The outputs of this test are computed with the file post_processing_debug.f90 that can be found in: ($SFEMaNS_DIR)/MHD_DATA_TEST_CONV_PETSC.

To check the well behavior of the code, we compute four quantities:

  1. The L2-norm of error on u divided by the L2-norm of u exact.
  2. The L2-norm of error on p divided by L2-norm of p exact.
  3. The L2-norm of error on T divided by L2-norm of T exact.
  4. The H1-norm of error on T divided by H1-norm of T exact.

These quantities are computed at the final time \(t=1\). They are compared to reference values to attest of the correct behavior of the code. These values of reference are in the last lines of the file debug_data_test_32 in ($SFEMaNS_DIR)/MHD_DATA_TEST_CONV_PETSC. They are equal to:
