compile of new combination of property in thermophisicalpropery
 

Hi

could anyone help me?!! I am very boring anymore because I can't solve my problem... I want to use a thermophysical model with adiabaticperfectfluid as equation of state. I use psiThermo or FluidThermo type and fill thermophysicalProperties las shown below:



I think that OF didn't compile my desired combination of above property. Could anyone tell me how I compile a new combination of thermophysicalpropery. for example: new combination is:

type hePsiThermo;
mixture pureMixture;
transport sutherland;
thermo hConst;
equationOfState adibaticPerfectFluid;
specie specie;
energy sensibleEnthalpy;


Regards,

hello,

have you solved the problem, yet?
how does it work?

thank's in advance

No, I can't solve it yet.

hi,

if you still need it, I have found a great summary on the thermophysical library in OpenFOAM.

I think, it should help you to solve your problem. Thank's to the author.

About wrong definition in thermophysicalProperties dictionary
 

Hi OpenFOAMers,


As far as I know only a limited set of combinations can be used with each solver. Thus, if you use improper combination of models in the thermophysicalProperties dictionary in OpemFOAM and you try to run your case then the OpenFOAM indicates you this problem, e.g.:

"Unknown rhoReactionThermo type
thermoType
{
type rhoReactingThermo;
mixture basicMultiComponentMixture;
transport const;
thermo hConst;
equationOfState perfectGas;
specie specie;
energy sensibleEnthalpy;
}"

and the program lists the available combinations, e.g.:

"Valid rhoReactionThermo types are:
type mixture transport thermo equationOfState specie energy
heRhoThermo homogeneousMixture const hConst incompressiblePerfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo homogeneousMixture const hConst perfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo homogeneousMixture sutherland janaf incompressiblePerfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo homogeneousMixture sutherland janaf perfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo inhomogeneousMixture const hConst incompressiblePerfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo inhomogeneousMixture const hConst perfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo inhomogeneousMixture sutherland janaf incompressiblePerfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo inhomogeneousMixture sutherland janaf perfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo multiComponentMixture const hConst incompressiblePerfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo multiComponentMixture const hConst incompressiblePerfectGas specie sensibleInternalEnergy
heRhoThermo multiComponentMixture const hConst perfectGas specie sensibleEnthalpy
heRhoThermo multiComponentMixture const hConst perfectGas specie sensibleInternalEnergy
heRhoThermo multiComponentMixture polynomial hPolynomial icoPolynomial"
***

So, what you need is to select a proper combination to your solver listed in the error message.
Suggested workflow: investigate your error message, try to understand it (using the User Guide, forums, etc.), look after other's solutions, adopt other's solution to yours, try it and start from the beginning or enjoy.
