Hi Nitish, Thanks for participating in the conversation as a former user and providing technical feedback on generating Lamb vector. I am familiar with the CWIPI coupling. I have found the process to be completely reliant on OpenFOAM the way it has been developed. Furthermore, there are severe compatibility issues on what version of OpenFOAM, CWIPI or NEKTAR++ one is using. My question to the Nektar++ developers (@nektar-users@imperial.ac.uk<mailto:nektar-users@imperial.ac.uk>) would be along same line as Fei Gao. Can we directly import lamb vector or filtered sources from other CFD solvers, or even experiment results, to the APE in Nektar? This would probably be reading some source file at various time instances. It seems such capabilities would be available in Nektar++ but I don’t see anything in the documentation or tutorials. Some advice in the regard would be very helpful.

To obtain lamb vector as a sound source, I first had a time averaged flow and then calculated the fluctuating lamb vector by subtracting the instantaneous lamb vector from the mean value. This value was then transferred to Nektar++ using CWIPI coupling. The process should be fairly similar if you are going for a file based coupling. You can refer to the following article for more information Arya, Nitish, and Ashoke De. "Effect of vortex and entropy sources in sound generation for compressible cavity flow."

Hello, everyone I saw some posts regarding the CAA in Nektar, I have some questions. Also, I want to couple the Compressible solver and Acoustic solver. First, how can I get the Lamb vector in Compressible solver? [cid:ii_192fbf94db2cb971f161] Second, if I export the result average file from the thirdparty CFD solver, then how can I transform the result file to .fld or .pts? Is there anything else I should be aware of about CAA in Nektar?
