Dear Spencer and David,

Thanks for your response.

1) Yes, I am running a passive scalar using a forcing term to couple the scalar. The code was working well for 2D base flow and 2D perturbation, but there was an issue with the HalfMode calculation. Now, this is resolved as there was a bug in “LinearisedAdvection::UpdateGradBase”. It was not including the passive scalar because of condition “if var<2” for "HalfMode". Now, when I change it to “if var < 4”, it works.

2) David: I tried your suggestion, but it doesn't work.

I think we need a module to perform inverse Fourier transform in the homogeneous direction of the eigenmode obtain from the HalfMode calculation.

Again thanks a lot to both for your help.

With regards

Abhishek

Hi both,

This might be possible without doing anything fancy, unless I am forgetting how the half mode output looks like. Have you tried just doing:

FieldConvert session.xml halfmode.fld out.vtu

where session.xml has been set up as a 3DH1D problem? This might then just populate the mean mode and zero the rest of the spectrum so you will get the mean mode output.

Cheers,

Dave

This certainly used to be possible although I have not played with this bit of code for a while. Essentially we need to add a mean mode component to the eigenmode to make it a full 3D1H expansion and then FieldConvert should work.

Now I want to reconstruct the eigenmode in 3D, which will require inverse Fourier transform. I have check one of the examples in the manual for the Floquet analysis of a of flow past a cylinder. There is a plot for the eigenmode at z=2 [Figure 10.25 of the manual].
