Using radiation,convection,turbulence, buoyant and species transport in openfoam

hakim · December 10, 2009, 07:14

I am starting a simulation involving, species transport, radiation and convection heat transfer, turbulence, buoyant flow using openfoam. its basically a fire explosion in an open environment.

I would like to know how this could be implemented in Foam as I am a beginer in Foam but not in CFD.

Regards

The 1.6.x release (using "git") has an application named "fireFoam" which will do the fire part. It includes a tutorial as well. For an explosion you could try "reactingParcelFoam" and setup the problem so no particles are injected.

Hope this helps

hello,
is there any idea about implementing natural convection B.C for a problem which uses buoyantPimpleFoam solver?
