Mixing plane implementation - where to start?
 

Hello,
I would like to try to implement mixing plane model/boundary condition.
Does anyone have some recommendation where to start? I mean, which files/applications/libraries can be useful to reuse. Should it be implemented on level of solver or boundary condition?
Thank you in advance.

I think there is already some stuff being done on that http://tinyurl.com/36p6dfx

To be concrete, have a look at
https://openfoam-extend.svn.sourcefo...torInterfaces/
(don't know how up to date this stuff is, but the TurboMachinery-guys may be able to help you here)

Hi....I am currently doing the Openfoam validation procedure using NASA Stage 35.....I have been asked to use mixing plane approach at the rotor-stator interface.....I have Opanfoam-2.0.0 version in my cluster......I try to dynamically link the mixing plane library available in the OpenFOAM-ext version as given in https://openfoam-extend.svn.sourcefo...torInterfaces/

I followed everything that is given in CompilingHowTO.txt... But, I get an error like this.....

Please help me with this...Thanks in advance

I guess you skipped the most important piece of information from the first paragraph from CompilingHowTO.txt....

To compile the rotorStatorInterfaces library one has to use either the
1.4.1-dev or the 1.4.1 with linking additionally the GGIinterpolation files
from the development version.

Not all versions of OpenFOAM are interchangeable...

Martin

The CompilingHowTo says "1.4.1-dev or ...". Don't want to discourage you but I think what you're seeing is only the beginning of the technical difficulties you're going to experience (the version with which this development is compatible is VERY old and there are other matters ...)

I've never worked with that stuff so apart from that I can give you no advice

Thank you so much for your replies.....Yes I did see the 1.4.1-dev or the 1.4.1.....I didn't know about the interchangable issue......btw, is there any other way of implementing 'mixing plane' model....because I am not very good at C++ coding....I read about the new feature AMI....Is it possible to implement AMI in that???
