Description:
The smogrd program is used to perform elliptic smoothing to a portion
of a grid and spread out an undesired region of fine spacing. This
typically occurs at the wake-cut of a c-grid which has been generated
with a hyperbolic grid generator. Improved accuracy and convergence
can sometimes be obtained if the fine wall spacing is relaxed at these
flow-through boundaries.
Arguments:
-f wingfile: wingfile is the filename of the input volume grid written
as a plot3d single-zone unformatted file, in two or three dimensions.
The current implementation of the program assumes the following:
in a 3D file, the j-direction is the c-grid direction, the k-direction
is a spanwise or cross-flow direction, and the l-direction is normal
to the body; in a 2D file, the j-direction is the c-grid direction and
the k-direction is normal to the body.
Default value for wingfile is xyz.dat.
-o outfile: outfile is the filename to which the new grid is written.
Default value for outfile is xyz.sm.dat.
-2d: this flag indicates that the input file is two-dimensional.
The default is to assume a 3D input file.
-cgrid: this flag indicates that the topology of the input grid is
a c-grid. The smoothing is performed by temporarily reordering
the grid lines aft of the trailing-edge into a single block. This
provides for slope- and spacing-continuity across the wake-cut.
This is the default behavior.
-collar: This flag indicates that the input grid is a collar grid.
The smoothing is performed by reordering the grid lines aft of
the trailing-edge into a single block for the subset of the
grid which forms a c-topology.
-jfold: This flag indicates that the grid has a fold-over flow through
boundary, where j is the fold direction, as in OVERFLOW boundary
condition 54. Works only with -hgrid option. Default is false.
-kfold: This flag indicates that the grid has a fold-over flow through
boundary, where k is the fold direction, as in OVERFLOW boundary
condition 55. Works only with -hgrid option. Default is false.
-lfold: This flag indicates that the grid has a fold-over flow through
boundary, where l is the fold direction, as in OVERFLOW boundary
condition 56. Works only with -hgrid option. Default is false.
-jte j: j is the j-index of the grid point of the lower trailing-edge,
or, if j is less than or equal to zero, it indicates that the program
should find the TE point automatically. The TE point (jte) is the
aft-most point which will be considered a no-slip wall point. Aft of
this point, c-grid flow-through boundary conditions should be applied.
If j=0, the code will set jte to the forward most point
where the wingtip cross-section collapses to zero thickness.
If j=-1, -2, ..., the code will set jte corresponding to the
(-j)th point ahead of the forward most point where the wingtip
cross-section collapses to zero thickness. For example, if jte=-1,
the code will set jte corresponding to the aftmost point where
there is a non-zero thickness.
If the c-grid wake cut of the wing grid never collapses to zero
thickness, use j=-99. This will cause the code set jte to the
point corresponding to the first minima encountered (when
searching from j=1 forward) in the chordwise spacing. It also
causes the program to treat each side of the c-grid separately,
so that the surface line does not move and the opening between
the legs of the c-grid is maintained.
Default is 0.
-wingcap: This flag indicates that the input grid file has the topology
of a wingcap grid with a c-topology. Smoothing is applied to
each l-grid line aft of the trailing-edge individually.
-cusp: This flag indicates that the input grid file has the topology
of a wingcap grid with a cusp. This implies the -wingcap option.
Smoothing is applied to each l-grid line individually, to all lines
aft of the trailing edge and before the cusp.
-wake wakefile:
#### Defered Implementation ####
-relx rx: rx is a real number between 0.0 and 1.0. rx is a scale factor
effecting the change in the x-coordinates. Values of zero means
the smoothing will not change the x-coordinates. Default is 1.
-rely ry: ry is a real number between 0.0 and 1.0. ry is a scale factor
effecting the change in the y-coordinates. Values of zero means
the smoothing will not change the y-coordinates. Default is 1.
-relz rz: rz is a real number between 0.0 and 1.0. rz is a scale factor
effecting the change in the z-coordinates. Values of zero means
the smoothing will not change the z-coordinates. Default is 1.
-nmax n: number of iterations used in the elliptic smoother. Default is 2.
-hgrid: program is to perform smoothing on the input grid for the
specified subset given by the input parameters jbeg,jend,
kbeg,kend, and lbeg,lend.
-jbeg jb -jend je:
-kbeg kb -kend ke:
-lbeg lb -lend le:
These inputs specify a subset of the grid to be smoothed.
For the hgrid option, all 3 beg/end indices are used.
For the cgrid option, only the spanwise computational direction
indices are used. Negative indices can be used to specify
an index using the formula: jb = jmax + 1 + jb; for example
jb=-1 indicates jmax. If the beginning or ending index is an interior
point, the smoothing is limited for the first few grid points close
to the beginning/ending index. Defaults: jb=1, je=-1; kb=1, ke=-1;
lb=1, le=-1.
-kperi: use this flag to indicate a periodic o-grid in the k-direction;
this forces the program to make k=1 and k=kmax planes coincident.
-ibdir ib: ib indicates the computational direction to be smoothed, which
typically should be the direction normal to the no-slip wall.
Values of +1/-1, +2/-2, +3/-3 indicate the positive/negative xi-
direction, the positive/negative eta-direction, and the positive/
negative zeta-direction, respectively. Default = 3.
-ibcja ja, -ibcjb jb:
-ibcka ka, -ibckb kb:
boundary conditions to apply at the j=1,
j=jmax, k=1, and k=kmax, boundaries, respectively. These values are
ignored if these boundaries are excluded from the active subset of the
grid using the [jkl]beg, [jkl]end inputs. The values of these
boundary conditions correspond to the values used by the hyperbolic
grid generator HYPGEN. Default is -1.
-1: floating x, y, and z. This extrapolates coordinates for
c-grid and collar grid topologies on the downstream and
spanwise boundaries.
1: fix x, float y and z
2: fix y, float x and y
3: fix z, float x and y
4: float x, fix y and z
5: float y, fix x and z
6: float z, fix x and y
7: floating collapsed edge with matching upper and lower sides
21: NOT YET IMPLMENTED!!!!!!
ibcka or ibckb only: apply to ibcka or ibckb: stacked 2D
grid boundary condition with kmax=3. Code will copy
the k=2 plane into the k=1 and k=kmax planes. Code will
automatically determine if the 2D planes are in the xy, yz,
or xz physical planes.
NOTE: these are currently only coded for the cgrid option with
ibdir=3, and for the collar option (ibcjb and ibckb=7 only)
with ibdir=3, and for the 2d hgrid option, and for the 2d
cgrid option with ibdir=2, and for the wingcap option, and
for the 3d hgrid option.
