My First Simulation

Using SimScale
2

Hey @Robert01,
welcome to simscale :slight_smile: .
The time consumption of a simulation depends on a few things,

  • the count of cells in the mesh
  • the count of used cores
  • the simulation type itself

I didn’t see the Meshing properties in the tutorial, so maybe another algorithm (Hex-dominated) is used there ?
In terms of the differently looking results, you need to assign the Z velocity not the X velocity.
To get a nice color gradient, you have to use the point data instead of cell data.
Here is a very good summary about the different types.

Best regards
