DESCRIPTION

For Generalized Newtonian flows, POLYFLOW can calculate the extra-stress tensor T on the part of the domain where the velocity field has been calculated. Note that 3 components of the inelastic stress tensor will be calculated in 2D planar, 4 components in 2D axisymmetric, and 6 components in 2D 1/2 axisymmetric and in 3D.
    OPTIONS
 
 -1 
 Upper level menu
1
 Enable evaluation of tensor eigenvalues
Activates the calculation of tensor eigenvalues
2
 Enable evaluation of tensor comp. along velocity
Activates the calculation of tensor components in a local coordinate oriented along the main velocity.
NOTES
 
For 3D flows, the calculation of the inelastic stress tensor may require more CPU time an memory than the flow calculation itself.
