Bug in specieThermoI.H ?
 
Dear Foamers,
is it possible that the computation of the internal energy is wrong in OF 2.1.1?

specieThermoI.H, line 112, reads:

Code:

return this->h(T) - this->RR*(T - this->Tstd);
In my opinion, it should read
Code:

return this->h(T) - this->RR*T;
because e = h - p*v = h - R*T in ideal gases.

Same problem for sensible energy in the following lines.


UPDATE: The issue is now in the OF bug reporting system.
