Wich solver for CHT, multiphase et phase change?
 

Hi,

I want to make a simulation of the cooling of a mold. The mold is in copper and it is cooling by water jet. So, the simulation must consider CHT, multiphase (air and water) and phase change (water evaporating in contact of the mold).

Is there a solver in OpenFoam who can handle these type of problem?

Thank you,

In OF-2.2 you won't find this solver, but there is a CHT solver and few others with phase change solving abilities. I guess you can tweak these codes and coupled them.

Hi,

Is there some sort of tutorial that can be used to learn how to modify a solver?

Thank you,

There are several "tutorials" on internet. The first one on google :

But I'm not sure you'll find anything official.
