How to estimate the first layer thickness on a wall when using HiFiLES? #103

Hi: The wall distance is normally required around y+ =1 in DNS or Wall Resolved LES. How about the mesh requirement in HiFiLES? How to estimate the first layer thicknes on a wall when using HiFiLES?

Best regards! Yue

Here is a neat calculator for finding the width of the element closest to the no-slip boundary. http://www.pointwise.com/yplus/ This calculator is intended for 2nd order methods, so multiply whatever width this calculator suggests by (p+1)/2, where p is the degree of the polynomial you are using to approximate the solution.

In this way, the first degree of freedom will be at a distance close to y+

Can HiFiLES solve a flow with Ma =0.025?

Best regards!

Yes, using the Rusanov flux.
