Difference between thermophysicalProperties and transportProperties in OpenFoam -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

January 24, 2020, 07:56	Difference between thermophysicalProperties and transportProperties in OpenFoam	#1
ashrujit New Member santi Join Date: Jan 2020 Posts: 3 Rep Power: 6	Hello. I am new to OpenFoam and CFD as well. In some tutorial cases (I am using buoyantPimpleFoam), in 'Constant' folder there is 'thermophysicalProperties' file present and sometimes 'transportProperties' file present. And sometimes both the files are present. [ In OpenFoam version 7, buoyantPimpleFoam folder - 'BernardCells' case has both the files present. But 'hotRoom' and 'hotRoomBoussinesq' cases have only 'thermophysicalProperties' file present. ] Can anyone please explain the differences please? Which file to use for which cases? Thanks in advance.
