Dear friends;
I am running simulations on a 2D rectangular venturi using interPhaseChangeFoam.
I am using kosst not using the wall functions but solving the whole boundary layer.
i got a strange behaviour of alpha that i can't correct, i would ask for help if someone had experience with it.
i attach some images and the setup i'm using.
thanks to all !
