Morning all,
I am currently trying to bring an idea over from FLUENT into OF. I am essentially simulating water flow over air, where I know the interface can be idealised as fixed and flat. So my approach is to define two separate domains, one for water and one for air, and then couple the domains using groovyBC at the interface. I am just using icoFoam at the moment. I have physically separated the domains so that there is space between them as there appears to be no double sided wall option in OF. I thought I had done the hard part and managed to sort out the BCs to couple the domain but have now got well and truly stuck. In FLUENT you can easily define the properties of fluid1 in domain1 and fluid2 in domain2, but I cannot see how to do this in openfoam. So my question is essentially, can I have two different domains with icofoam and have a different fluid in each? Hope that someone can help Thanks |
