<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Dear Emily,</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Attached is a channel flow example with a 90-element mesh generated</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">by genbox. It has 6 elements in the wall-normal direction, which for polynomial</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">order N=7 (lx1=8 in the SIZE file) implies 42 points in the wall normal direction.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I have run this case with lx1=12 (implying 6x11 = 66 points in the wall normal</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">direction) as a reasonable LES for Re_tau=395.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">You can reach a DNS solution with increased resolution by increasing the polynomial order or by refining the mesh through changes to the box file and rerunning genbox and genmap.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">The .usr file should be fine in this case - it has no eddy-diffusivity. The .rea file does prescribe a filter here: param 103 = 0.05 and p101=1 implies 5% of the energy is removed from the Nth mode in the velocity
field at each time step and 5% x (1/4) of the energy in the (N-1)th mode at each step. In the limit that you approach DNS, the amount of energy in these modes is in any case small, so you don't need to worry about turning them off, but you could do so if
you wanted.</p>
