Dear Foamers,

I'm a bit confused about the representation of a symmetric tensor in the result files, this especially refers to the UPrime2Mean files after time averaging of an LES simulation.
In this case, the symTensor should be something like

T = (u'u' , u'v' , u''w'
v'u' , v'v' , v'w'
w'u' , w'v' , w'w')

where u'v' = v'u' etc.

But I'm wondering which component of the tensor is represented by which entry in the result file?
Is it

(u'u' u'v' u'w' v'v' v'w' w'w')

?

Thanks for your reply!

Hi,
I dont know it now, but you can use "foamCalc components sigma" which create the volScalarFields sigmaxx,sigmayy...

Just type it in you case folder.
