Hi Fedor,
I ran the pipe flow DNS using ThirdOrderRLBdynamics with D3Q19. It ran successfully for some time but eventually went to “nan” as the average density exceeded around 1.038.
However, when I used ThirdOrderRLBdynamics for my channel flow case, the re-laminarization issue was resolved, which was my main concern. I had originally attempted the nozzle case to address this issue.
Thank you for suggesting this!
Best,
Nipin
