How to add a Sink for Passive Scalar

Mehar · August 20, 2016, 11:01

Hi everyone,
I am trying to simulate transport of a gas (passive scalar) in a flow field (air) using scalarTransportFoam. One of the patches acts as a suction, where gas should be collected. Which means I need to provide a sink term for scalarTransportFoam such that gas is removed from the flow once it interacts with suction patch.
I think this can be done using fvOptions, but don't know how.
Can someone help me out.
Thanks
