hi sasan
im sure the version of openFoam in ur laptop and and where you run in it parallel is different , in new release of openFoam (1.7) , for stability,"p_rgh" is used instead of "p".

Hello Hrvoje,

As I said, if there are no topological changes, no field mapping gets done. Instead, the integral equations we are discretising are rewritten for the arbitrary moving control volume instead of the static one. There are two effects:
1) the rate of change of the volume in the ddt term (vol and old vol)
2) the relative velocity in the convection term, equal to the difference between the absolute velocity and the mesh motion velocity - that's the mesh.phi() bit in the solver. Once you do that, the mesh motion effect is actually built into the equation itself and the "mapping" you refer to becomes a part of the solution.


Can you tell me what procedures are doing the steps 1) and 2)?, i mean change at volumen and relative velocity correction??

Advanced thanks,

Pablo

hello friend

why this following expression has been added to piso Algorithm
- (fvc::grad(U) & fvc::grad(muEff))

is it for varying mu ?

beacuse i think the effect of varying mu has been seen in :
- fvm::laplacian(muEff, U)

This is explained in Edin Berberovic's paper and due viscosity spacial variability and the expansion of (nabla U + nabla U^T) term.

So i've been using interFoam for the past week few weeks now and I'm starting to wonder if it's the best solver for what I'm trying to do (vof and mhd together).

It seems like interFoam, rather than taking properties of each fluid separately, takes properties of the mixture into account.

Is there a different solver that would be more suited to solving two separate fluids such as liquid metal and plasma?

hello , I want to model the exterimental flume with the changeable slope and I want to model the bottom outlet with openfoam , is it possible to model it with interfoam? and is it possible to model the dam with changeable slope because of topography and is it possible to model the bottom outlet in dam?

Hello every one,
Does anybody know about the Algorithm which is used in the MULES method?
