Hi I am using denseParticleFoam solver to simulate 2 phase flows and I want to calculate th wallshearStress, using the denseParticleFoam -postProcess -func wallShearStress but whenever I start I get this error
Code:
/*--------------------------------*- C++ -*----------------------------------*\

functions
{
  wallShearStress
    {
        type            wallShearStress;
        libs            ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");

        executeControl  timeStep;
        writeControl    outputTime;
    }   
   /* fieldAverage
    {
        type                fieldAverage;
        writeControl        outputTime;
        timeStart           0;
        fields
        (
            wallShearStress
            {   
                mean        on;
                prime2Mean  off;
                base        time;
            }
        );
        libs  ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
    }*/
    }

and the error i get is

Code:
Starting time loop

wallShearStress wallShearStress:
    processing all wall patches



--> FOAM FATAL ERROR: 
Unable to find turbulence model in the database

    From function virtual bool Foam::functionObjects::wallShearStress::execute()
    in file wallShearStress/wallShearStress.C at line 210.

FOAM exiting
Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

Thanks

How do you set the turbulence model?

What is your constant/turbulenceModel or similar?

Laminar flow simulation and viscosity is constant
