Hello everyone,
I want to know about Thermophysical models and properties used in OpenFOAM. So, can any one give me suggestion about liturature from where I can read the model equations and etc about it. Regards, Gitesh |

you should find many things by searching through the files at:
OpenFOAM-2.1.0/src/thermophysicalModels/ other than that it depends on your physics.. is it biased toward chemistry?Lagrangian approaches?solid?liquid?heatTRanfer?compressible effects? can't rly point a bible i guess, that's the beuty, if i may say, of CFD, you kinda gotta know a bit of everything, sometimes more than you thought you had but you could check the physics books from Sears & Zemansky books

Hi,
if you need additonal thermo models, have a look at the OpenFOAM ext real gas branch. http://openfoam-extend.git.sourcefor...dRealGasThermo Best Regards, Christian |

Thank you for your help !!
I am not much familiar with OF. I am going to work with real gas assumption. Lucas can you say me what is the meaning of 'realGasEThermo + realGas_pEqn 4 rhoPisoFoam'. BR, Gitesh |
