Hi everyone,

I am relatively new to OpenFOAM so I hope you'll have some patience with me! I am using OpenFOAM v3.0.0.

I am interested in adding additional Lagrangian output variables for post-processing in Paraview. After some searching, I think I have concluded that these output variables can be specified in SprayParcelIO.C. The source of my confusion is that while I see some standard parcel output variables (d0, injector, etc), I do not see quantities like temperature or droplet size...

Question #1: Where is the appropriate location to edit/control Lagrangian output variables? If it is SprayParcelIO.C, where is the parcel diameter (d) outputted?

Question #2: If SprayParcelIO.C is the correct file to edit, do I need to add the name of my custom output variable in each section where I see other parcel variable names (like "user_", "d0_",etc) or only certain sections?

Question #3: After editing the appropriate file, how should I compile the code to include these edits?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Dear, have you found any solution to your questions? I am also interested.
