I want to write a UDF about reaction rate using DEFINE_VR_RATE.

#include "udf.h"
DEFINE_VR_RATE(vol_reac_rate,c,t,r,wk,yk,rate,rr_t )
{
real ci,prod;
int i;
prod=1.;
for(i=0;i<r->n_reactants;i++)
{
ci=C_R(c,t)*yk[r->reactant[i]]/wk[r->reactant[i]];
prod*=pow(ci,r->exp_reactant[i]);
}
*rate=r->A*exp(-r->E/(UNIVERSAL_GAS_CONSTANT*C_T(c,t)))*pow(C_T(c,t),r->b)*prod*(1-C_VOF(c,t));
*rr_t=*rate;
}


here Thread *t pointer to cell thread on which the volumetric reaction rate is to be applied.
1-C_VOF(c,t) is the volume fraction of second phase.
If there are more than two phases,
how can i specify the variables of the phases which are not applied by the reaction rate.

thank you

I think (c,t) is the mixture, if you want to get vof of second phase, you shoud first use THREAD_SUB_THREAD to get the thread of second phase, says t_second_phase. then get its vof by C_VOF(c,t_second_phase)

as described in help manual,
Thread *t pointer to cell thread on which the volumetric reaction rate is to be applied.
So i think t is only the phase applied the reaction rate , not the mixture.
I have tried
Thread***pt*=*THREAD_SUB_THREADS(t);
*Thread**tp*=*pt[0];
*Thread**ts*=*pt[1];
But fluent shows wrong.
BTW, I should define the phase before DEFINE_VR_RATE or after it?

hey friend did u find solution to your problem i m having the same problem i.e
whether t pointer to thread passed as argument in DEFINE_VR_RATE is for mixture level or for that particular reactive phase ?
