Hi,

I am trying to add energy equation to interFoam. So I made a new library called myincompressibleTwoPhaseMixture and a solver called interTempFoam as suggested by http://www.wolfdynamics.com/images/c...erTempFoam.pdf.
I could successfully compile the library in openFoam 2.3.0 but I cannot compile the solver. I got the following error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmyincompressibleTwoPhaseMixture
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [/home/elham/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.3.0/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/bin/interTempFoam] Error 1

I have attached my library and solver. I will be really appreciate if anyone can give me clue.

Quick answer:
  1. The library package in "Make/files" has defined the name "libmyincompressibleTransportModels".
  2. The solver is looking for the name "libmyincompressibleTwoPhaseMixture".
  3. Can't see the difference? Try seeing it like this:
    Code:
    libmyincompressibleTransportModels
    libmyincompressibleTwoPhaseMixture

you can check the 6th and 7th discussion in this link where i explained what to add to the make file of your solver and modified library

Hello,

you can have a look at my thread. I got interTempFoam compiled using OF 2.4.0.

Unfortunately the new solver creates temperature fields that contain obvious mistakes.

Hi all,

nice to see so much discussion and support,

I am trying to compile the lib after altering it using this guide to implement temperature equation in interFoam

http://www.wolfdynamics.com/images/c...erTempFoam.pdf

however I am unable to wmake my lib as it keeps giving me this error.

This is what happens when i command wmake

Code:
wmake libso >logs
Make/options:7:12: warning: backslash-newline at end of file [enabled by default]
 LIB_LIBS = \
 ^
wmakeLnInclude: linking include files to ./lnInclude

This is how my make>file looks

Code:
viscosityModels/viscosityModel/viscosityModel.C
viscosityModels/viscosityModel/viscosityModelNew.C
viscosityModels/Newtonian/Newtonian.C

viscosityModels/HerschelBulkley/HerschelBulkley.C

transportModel/transportModel.C
singlePhaseTransportModel/singlePhaseTransportModel.C

myIncompressibleTwoPhaseMixture/myIncompressibleTwoPhaseMixture.C

LIB = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/libmyIncompressibleTransportModels
here is my make>option looks
Code:
EXE_INC = \
    -I.. \
    -I../twoPhaseMixture/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude

LIB_LIBS = \
    -ltwoPhaseMixture \
    -lfiniteVolume \
I dont know what the link error is, sorry if this is too basic because i am new to OpenFOAM.

help will be much appreciated

Thanks

Rimsha

Quick request @Rimsha: Please provide the source code package that you're using. I ask this because it will be a lot quicker to help you if you do this.
In addition, please keep in mind that you seem to be using OpenFOAM 3.0, which has some big differences from OpenFOAM 2.3.0, including in its build process.

Hiya, thank you very much for your reply, it is highly appreciated.

May i know where i can find this source code, do you mean the lib code that i am trying to wmake?

I am sorry if this sounds stupid but i am very new to this software.

Yes

Quick example, run the following command from within your source code folder:
Code:
wclean all
cd ..
Then package the folder by running something like this:
Code:
tar -czf the_package_name.tar.gz  the_library_folder
rename the tilted names and then attach the "the_package_name.tar.gz" file in your next post.

Library trying to make >>incompressible.tar.gz

Hiya, I have attached the lib above.

Basically I am trying to add temperature heat capacity to interFoam however there are two approaches one could take

Method 1:
before editing solver and adding the equation, I have to alter "incompressibletwophasemixture" file however instead of altering the file, i got an additional file called twoPhaseThermalMixture.C and H where new variable related to heat capacity (cp) Prandl number and diffusion coefficient (kappa in the file). This file is then linked to "incompressibletwophasemixture" file using the file in make folder and also in "incompressibletwophasemixture.C" it is included in the beginning.

However with this approah I am getting error where nothing in C file of twoPhaseThermalMixture.C is being recognized when i wmake libso.

i attach the log file log.txt


Method 2

In second method I have followed this tutorial

http://www.wolfdynamics.com/images/c...erTempFoam.pdf

In this approach you can edit "incompressibletwophasemixture.C" and "incompressibletwophasemixture.H" to include all the new variables that are included in twoPhaseThermalMixture.C and twoPhaseThermalMixture.H in method 1. once that is done you can just make this library again however this also gives ridiculous errors therefore i am not sure what to do.

Hope I was able to explain my problem well, I am extremely grateful for your effort to help me.

My OpenFoam is 3.0.1 i am not sure if that is the case why this library alterations are not working.

here are the files for 2nd approach and the log file is included
incompressible_Ap2.tar.gz

Hi Rimsha,

Sorry, but only today did I finally managed to take a look into your questions. Nonetheless, I've checked other posts you've made since then and it seems that you've already solved your problem?
I'm referring to the posts you made in the following threads:
Best regards,
Bruno

Just to make it clear of future readers, the thread suggested by Ali solved my problem.
Just try adding this code into your options file:
Code:
-L$(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN) \
Adios!
