transportProperties chemkin to openFoam
Hi All,
I am trying to convert San Diego USCD Mechanism to OpenFOAM, but while trying to use chemkimToFoam it gives an error Code:
ill-defined primitiveEntry starting at keyword 'CHCHO' Code:
ill-defined primitiveEntry starting at keyword 'AR' Code:
".*" Can anyone let me know how can we convert transport files from Chemkin to foam? |
Hi ayu12,
Were you able to convert the mechanism? I am facing the same problem. Kindly share the solution if available Regards Navaneeth |
The integrated chemkin converter / reader is really sensitive to formatting of the input files and for transport files in chemkin format it does not even work at all.
So to use chemkinToFoam, issue the command as follows: Code:
chemkinToFoam [options] <ck mech file> <ck thermo file> <OF transport file> <output reactions file> <output thermo file> Contrary to what the manual page suggests, the third input file has to be an empty transportProperties file in OF format and not the transport file in chemkin format. Check out the chemFoam examples or use the lines of ayu12 for the transportProperties file. |
