autoPtr<incompressible::RASModel>

Hello everybody,
I am trying to declare RASModel outside main function but its giving me some errors.

I compiled the code, there were no errors but i run the code then i get following error.

-->Foam FATAL ERROR
lookup of RASProperties from object Registry region0 successful but it is not a RASModel, it is a dictionary.

How can i get rid of this fatal error. I am trying but still failed to get rid of it.

What I did is the following.

autoPtr<incompressible::RASModel> RASModel
(
incompressible::RASModel::New(U,phi,laminarTranspo rt)
);

This is the same way as done in buoyanBoussinesqSimpleFoam. What I am doing is that i am trying to initialize it in some class.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Hi,

I have no experience with your problem but just found this:

Code:

autoPtr<incompressible::RASModel> turbulence

            (

                incompressible::RASModel::New(U, phi, laminarTransport)

            );

Maybe this helps.

Regards,
Toni

That's exactly the answer. "RASModel" is the name of a class and can therefor not be used as name of the variable (here the name is "turbulence").

Hi Stefan,

but then how is it possible I found the following code in yPlusRAS.C ?

Code:

singlePhaseTransportModel laminarTransport(U, phi);



    autoPtr<incompressible::RASModel> RASModel

    (

        incompressible::RASModel::New(U, phi, laminarTransport)

    );
