Hi Foamers!
I'm having a little bit of trouble trying to remake the work done at the work of Waheed et al (2002) (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science...17931002001242), where some axissymetric wedge section of a drop inside a cilinder is taken, this drop containing solute, and the outer phase is solute-free. So, essencially I want to computate the solute transfer. The main problem is that i need to establish a equilibrium of the solute concentration inside and outside the drop, what I believe I could do by phisically stablishing a interface boundary in my domain and using groovyBC to ser the dragient expression. So, essencially, my domain would consist of 2 regions: the drop and the outer phase. By now, the mesh construction is OK, and I could stablish this phisical boundary and the paraFoam recognizes it. But running my case in my own implementation of interfoam (interfoam + solute transport), i noticed that the interface bondary (so called defaultFaces) is not needed. In fact, I can remove it from the boundary listed in the 0 directory with no problem! That's not right, my solver just ignores my equilibrium condition. What should I do? My master depends on this series of simulation I'm attaching my case files. Thanks in advance, I hope someone out there could help me. PS: In order to save space, after download and extraction please run blockMesh. |
