Studi is on a distinguished road
Hello everybody!

Basically I am simulating a polymer flow in an easy curved channel. I am using the nonNewtonianIcoFoam solver to do so (Changed stock dictionarys copied from tutorial). The solver uses the pressure p and the velocity U as boundary conditions. So far no problems.
What I want/need is the written values of the StrainRate (which OF is using during calculating the solutions), so that I can plot them in ParaFoam like the values for p and U, which is possible by default. Every time step folder contains phi and nu in addition to p and U already, so I conclude that there must be a possibilty to tell OF which values to plot in the time step folders, that I don't know.
Can you, the professionals, help me with that? Hopefully I could set straight the things I want.

Any help is much appreciated!


Regards
Sebastian
