Appropriate Polynomial Order
Hi all, I have 2 separate questions. On Pasquetti's paper where he carries out the investigation of the effect of SVV parameters on the flow past a cylinder, the polynomial orders used are very high i.e. N ~ 60 with roughly 10.8 million DOF. In contrast, in the AIAA paper "Implicit Large-Eddy Simulation of a Wingtip Vortex" , by Lombard et. al. the mesh uses tetrahedra and prismatic elements, adopts N = 6 and obtains roughly 16 million DOF. My question is therefore, if I'm using a simple structured mesh at a very low Re of 4000 is the choice of N=6 wihich corresponds roughly to 32 Million DOF in the 3D case appropriate? Or should I change to a much higher order as Pasquetti did in his study, while coarsening my "mesh" to achieve the same DOF as I currently have.

Dear all, For a simulation with IncNavierStokesSolver, what is an appropriate way to determine the time step? I did an estimation using the CFL criterium. Due to the spreading of the cell size this leads to a wider spreading of possible time steps. Is there a command to plot the maximum CFL number during the calculation? Exists the possibility to give a CFL criterium and the time step is calculated by nektar? Kind regards, Albert
