Here are some new results. Now, we have chosen the same model as before, but
with larger inlet temperature and mass flow (please reference to the first post).
The result of mass flow rate at...

Meanwhile we have tested the enthalpy equation without diffusion. However, the changes in mean temperature and pressure are tiny. Thus, thermal diffusion may be negligible. Some other ideas? Thanks!

We have, of course, analysed the "near field" of the inlet and compared it with CFX5. There are hardly some differences of temperature, pressure and velocity at inlet. Thus, we tend to assume that...

Now, we have inserted p.oldTime() in "createFields.H". And in fact, we can see small changes in the spatial pressure and temperature distribution. But unfortunately, the mean vales of temperature and...

Thank you so much. I have changed the code by using your suggestion. But unfortunately, the result is nearly the same as before.
I'm still thinking the "gamma" plays the key role here. So...

Now the situation is that if I subtract the mean temperature <t> of OpenFoam with 293 and multiply with gamma (gamma=cp/cv), then I get almost the same temperature as in CFX5. So I guess the wrong...

The finding is that the enthalpy flow of OpenFOAM is very close to that of CFX5.
Here, we have checked the static part, mdot*h_static, as well as the kinetic part mdot*uČ/2. Both are the same...

Yes, your idea turned out to be correct! I have checked the (m-m0) again by using your proposal m = V/R {p/T}, the mass is now conserved. Thanks a lot! But any idea about the pressure and Temperature?

The system mass is calculated
The system mass is calculated by using pV=mRT, p and T are the mean values within the volume. Then I get the mass(m) value for each saved step, subtract the initial mass m0.
