Dear Foamers,

I want to add porosity into my solver (which is based on multiphaseEulerFoam). Does anyone know if it is possible to change the volume of each cell by considering the porosity of the cell and then solve the equations for the new volumes?

I know I can access the volumes by cell.V() function. How can I force openfoam to read my new volumes:

Vnew() = cell.V()*porosity

I also need to consider the effect of porosity on faces

Thanks in advance
