How to export the specific heat and viscosity for postprocessing (compressible) ?

david39 · February 1, 2010, 13:28

Hello,

I am new in the OpenFOAM world so please apology if my question is simple.

I have tried to setup a compressible simulation by using the janafThermo and sutherlandTransport model in order to make the specific heat and viscosity depending on the temperature.

As the results I got are incorrects, I presume that there is a problem with my setup and I would like to export the Cp and viscosity for the postprocessing in Paraview in order to check that my definitions for the specific heat and viscosity in OpenFOAM (Units, ...) are correct.

How can I ask OpenFOAM for exporting the specific heat and viscosity for postprocessing purpose in Paraview ?

It would be nice if someone could help me.

Thanks,
David
