MRFSimpleFoam is missing in OF-2.2

sivakumar · March 15, 2013, 08:20

Hi Guys,
I have successfully compiled OF-2.2 on Ubuntu-12.04, as well I have checked some cases its working fine.

The strange thing is MRFSimpleFoam solver is not available in this version.
is it true or is there any problem in the compilation? or is there any other solver to replace this solver (MRFSimpleFoam)?...

To check again I downloaded the OF-2.2 source file and unzipped it, it seems that the solver is missing.

please help me to get clear about this issue.

Thanks,
Sivakumar

I also puzzled by this problem. Is there any other solver to replace this solver (MRFSimpleFoam)?
Thank you!

You have to use simpleFoam solver and add a fvOptions file in your system-folder. In your fvOption file you add the MRF functionality to the simpleFoam solver and do your settings.
