Greetings,

I've just recently started working with openFOAM and this is my first experience programming in C++ or anything similar. I have MATLAB experience but that's about it. I've worked through some tutorials but am still having trouble getting my feet on the ground.

I am writing a solver for a transport equation and would like to define a new constant tau,
which would be given by

tau = 1/(c*omega)

where c is some constant and omega is a volScalarField I am reading from.

tau would ideally then be used in a solve function.

What would be the best way to implement this in my solver?
