Hi:

I think there are a few papers where evaporation is modeled as source term for a continuum e.g. Hardt, S. & Wondra, F. 2008 Evaporation model for interfacial flows based on a continuum- field...

How do you intend to model the exchange of water between phases? Is it a concentration driven diffusion process for water mass fraction? Interfoam assumes the phases are incompressible i.e. no...

hi farhagim,

I can see that the constructor and a number of the functions in the incompressibleTwoPhaseThermalMixturec class are reported in the error log. Perharps the new class is not included...

Hi Faraghim,

Please check in your incompressibleTwoPhaseThemalMixture file if the function `Foam::twoPhaseMixture::kappaf() const' actually exits. And then check in your temperature equation in...

Hi Metro,

Like I said in an earlier reply, if the instability you speak of is at the interfacial region then its almost a consequence of the sharp jump in material properties at the interface. In...

Metro,

please note that this solver is specifically for laminar flows. You have to make some modifications to extend to turbulent flows. Just needed to clarify this so u are using it for the...

Try a higher grid resolution. I had similar problems earlier. The instability is typically around the interface region and simply grows unboundedly with time. Somewhere in the forum someone said this...

metro,

I have not been able to implement that yet. I am still trying to benchmark the results for my falling film flow with experimental results. Are you working on something similar?

Hi Metro,

You still need to make additional modifications to the codes for the interTempFoam solver like creating variables in the createFields.H. I am attaching a copy of my codes for your...

Hey Romant,

If you are using the single field representation which the interFoam family of solvers is based on, then the energy equation must apply to the entire flow field which is both the...
