[OpenFOAM] paraFoam and specific values

Gerrit · August 24, 2015, 07:31

Hi,

after I am now able to pre-process and run simple cases, I want to post-process them as well. I used Ansys CFX before - there you could simple add specific numbers like Reynolds number or y+ values by taking them out of the box.
I tried to find something like that as well in paraFoam. Do I have define these numbers before I start the solver or can I define them as well afterwards? And if I can define them afterwards, do I have to do that the same way like it is done in the "0" folder for all the other variables?

Thanks

Gerrit

I could solve it on my own...

Just if someone is interested in:
- y+ values can be achieved by running the yplusras command in your run folder
