Write Fluxes

Phigo90 · March 12, 2019, 03:39

Hi everyone,

I am a beginner in OpenFoam Developing. Just a short question. Is it possible to write the fluxes through each face instead of the cell center values in an output file?

Kind regards
Philipp

The field phi is a SurfaceScalarField, which contains the fluxes on the surfaces of the cells. Usually it is written in an output file.

Okay thanks for your explanations. Now, I have another question. How is it possible to find the member functions of the different classes. For example for a SurfaceScalarField. Sry I am also a beginner in C++. Think there is lots of to do in the next weeks
