Hi Andrew
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Are you running the "axi" case in the examples?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This case started with u=0 as an initial condition.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A quick glance at the output it produces in f00004, after 200 steps, shows plots</div>
<div>similar to yours.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you run longer (change nsteps in the .rea file), the viscous boundary layer</div>
<div>will diffuse inward from the walls and you should see a parabolic profile. This</div>
<div>is what I observed just now.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please let me know if this resolves the issue --- if not, I'm happy to check</div>
<div>further.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best, Paul</div>
<div><br>
</div>

Hi Andrew,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In my view, you are already getting the correct flow physics.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>What happens at outflow, especially at moderate Reynolds number, is not</div>
<div>necessarily parallel flow.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The stress formulation is giving the stress-free result.</div>

<div>Hi Paul, <br>
<br>
</div>
Thank you for your reply. </div>
<div>Yes, if i increase Reynolds number, the outlet profile become much close to the inlet one. But in my simulations the Reynolds number is between 300 and 1200.
<br>
Can you recommend me what kind of boundary conditions i can utilise for ensure for ensure the flow physics<font color="#000000" face="tahoma, arial, verdana, sans-serif, Lucida Sans"><span style="font-size:11px; line-height:16.5px"> ?</span></font> I would
implement these one in code. <br>

Hi Andrew,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I checked into this... I think what is happening is that the 'O ' bc for the stress formulation</div>
<div>means stress-free, which is not guaranteed to yield a parabolic profile at the outlet.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you increase your Reynolds number I'm guessing that you'll recover the parabolic</div>
<div>profile because the viscous stresses will diminish -- this is what I observed.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>From my perspective, the outlet boundary is not a region where I would count on accurate</div>
<div>physics --- it is, after all, a truncated domain, so I don't generally worry too much about</div>
<div>the behavior there.</div>
<div><br>

<div><span lang="en"><span title="Andrew"></span></span>Hi Neks,<br>
<br>
I have one question about stress formulation in NEK5000.<br>
I tried to make a simulation for Poiseuil flow with stress formulation. In inlet boundary condition use was made of parabolic profile. If IFSTRS=false the outlet profile is exactly the same as inlet one but in case of IFSTRS=true the outlet profile changes
significantly (both the maximum value and profile shape). Could you tell me how I can get the parabolic profile at outlet, please?<br>
The same thing occurs with pressure values. The maximum pressure value with IFSTRS=true is three times higher then the one with IFSTRS=false.<br>
<br>
I found that the difference comes from subroutines where the stiffness matrix is calculated (axehlm for IFSTRS = false and axhmsf for IFSTRS = true) but I don't undestand what is happening exactly.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for your help,<br>
Best regards,<br>
Andrew<br>
