Hello

Does anyone have any information regarding the variety of Thermophysical models used in reactingFoam and dieselFoam (the PaSR model solvers)? Specifically, how is the compressibility dealt with? I see that the default practice is to use an enthalpy-compressibility formulation (hPsiMixtureThermo). I don't know how this model works, so if anyone can help me here, that would be much appreciated.

Thermophysical properties are set in the simulations by the line below. I am unsure also of what "gasThermoPhysics" refers to. <http://www.openfoam.com/docs/user/thermophysical.php> didn't really help.

thermoType hsPsiMixtureThermo<reactingMixture<gasThermoPhysic s>>;

Ideally, I want an ideal gas equation of state governing the compressibility in my simulations. Is this possible with reactingFoam/dieselFoam?

Many thanks in advance
