Figure Legend Snippet: The fluid participant reads heat flux at the interface Γ C , while the solid participant reads temperature. The boundary values for the inflow (Γ inflow ), outflow (Γ outflow ), and the hot bottom of the plate (Γ hot ) are listed in the tables at the bottom of the figure. All other boundaries are insulated. u inflow , T inflow : velocity and temperature at the inflow boundary. p 0 : ambient pressure at all boundaries of the fluid. T hot : temperature at the bottom of the plate. g : acceleration due to gravity. k F and k S : thermal conductivity of the fluid and solid. ρ F and ρ S : density of the fluid and solid. c p,F and c p,S : specific heat capacity of the fluid and solid. α S ∗ = k S /( ρ S c p,S ): thermal diffusivity of the solid. µ : dynamic viscosity. ν * = µ / ρ F : kinematic viscosity. Pr* = c p,F µ / k F : Prandtl number of the fluid. M * = ρF RT inflow / p 0 : Molar mass of the fluid with R being the gas constant. z is the out-of-plane thickness: even if the coupled case is described as 2D, OpenFOAM is still a 3D solver. Quantities marked with a * are derived quantities.
Techniques Used: Viscosity, Derivative Assay
Figure Legend Snippet: The bottom of the flap is clamped, the solid participant reads forces at the interface, while the fluid participant reads displacement values. The inflow velocity at the channel inlet is 10 m/s and the outflow sets a zero velocity gradient. Ma ∞ , p ∞ , T ∞ , u ∞ : Mach number, pressure, temperature, and velocity at the inflow. ν f , ρ f : kinematic viscosity and density of the fluid. E : Young’s modulus. ν s : Poisson’s ratio of the solid. ρ s : density of the solid. z is the out-of-plane thickness: even if the coupled case is described as 2D, OpenFOAM and CalculiX are still 3D solvers.
Techniques Used: Viscosity
Figure Legend Snippet: The upper plot shows the results for an incompressible flow computed with Nutils or OpenFOAM. The lower plot shows the results for compressible flow computed with SU2. Incompressible and compressible flow give qualitatively different results, as expected. Good agreement within each class of flow simulation is achieved for all combinations of solid and fluid solvers. When using CalculiX as solid solver, the distribution v2104.0 specified C3D8 elements, which led to insufficient agreement with the results of the rest of the solvers. Using C3D8I elements produces results which are in better agreement, a suggestion contributed after the release of v2104.0 by Andrés Pedemonte Fehrmann ( https://github.com/precice/tutorials/pull/250 ) and used for the results shown here.

Techniques Used: Software
Figure Legend Snippet: Whereas new releases have a clear impact on GitHub traffic, conferences, such as the ECCOMAS mini-symposia (MS1, MS2, MS3), different OpenFOAM workshops (ESI, OFW), and the preCICE workshops (WS) have not always a clear direct impact. With the start of the preCICE forum (fall 2019) and, in particular, with moving the user documentation to the new website at the end of 2020, traffic is shifted away from GitHub. At the online preCICE Workshop 2021, we used the forum to let attendees introduce themselves. This led to sustainable increase of forum traffic.
