Polymer Weight Function#

Polymer Weight Function = {GALERKIN | SUPG}

Description / Usage#

This optional card is used to specify the weight function for the polymer stress equation. Valid options are

GALERKIN	Uses a Galerkin weight-function for the stress equation. This option is the default if this card is not present.
SUPG	Uses a streamline upwind Petrov-Galerkin weight-function for the stress equation. If this option is chosen, a weight must be specified via the Polymer Weighting card.

The following is a sample card that set the polymer weight function to SUPG and demonstrates the required cards.

Polymer Weight Function = SUPG

Polymer Weighting = CONSTANT 0.1

The following is a sample card that set the polymer weight function to GALERKIN.

Polymer Weight Function = GALERKIN
