Dear
I wanted to simulate bubbly reaction flow by OpenFoam, so I need solver or utility name and processes to get it. please help me. thanks |

I would recommend to use interFoam to simulate the multiphase regime if your flow is not dominated to much by capillary forces. (Otherwise you have to pay special attention to the spurious currents if you use interFoam)
Then you have to implement a concentration field into the solver and add a reaction term to the right site of the transport equation as an explicit source term. A problem could arise if you need mass transfer of the reacting component between gas and liquid. Smeared interfaces (like in interFoam) are not good to calculate mass transfer. I hope this is helpful for you. |
