Moving issue 27 from gitlab originally submitted by @aprilnovak:
The CoupledDriver currently only has a notion of solutions at the current and previous Picard iterations. The heat-fluids solver is usually run as a transient, which performs timestepping based on some solution at the start of the timestep. This initial solution from which the T/H solver marches forward in time should be the same as the CoupledDriver::temperature_ at the start of each timestep if we ever want to run transients (for pseudo-transients where we simulate to a steady state instead of solving PDEs with no time derivatives, the initial condition is irrelevant).
At the start of each timestep in CoupledDriver, we should tell the T/H solver what temperature it should use as the initial condition for that timestep. We can add a temperature_prev_ member to the HeatDriver and NekDriver to represent the temperature at the last timestep.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
The update_temperature method only updates the temperature known to the coupled driver, i.e. the Picard iteration temperatures. We would need to add some method to Nek's interface like nek_set_temperature(int elem) to tell Nek's solver what temperature to begin marching from.
But given a conversation a while ago that transients aren't a priority, this issue is low on the to-do list since Nek should converge on a single steady temperature solution regardless of whatever IC it has internally.
