Hi,
I am looking into how the RAS models are called (for example how k and epsilon equations are called to be solved in pisofoam). I had some questions about this. Take PISOFOAM as an example, I know that turbulence->correct(); is used to solve the k and epsilon equations and correct the turbulent viscosity. And then turbulence is defined in creatFields. H as follows: 00039 autoPtr<incompressible::turbulenceModel> turbulence 00040 ( 00041 incompressible::turbulenceModel::New(U, phi, laminarTransport) 00042 ); in the class turbulenceModel, the function correct appears as follows: 00127 void turbulenceModel::correct() 00128 { 00129 transportModel_.correct(); 00130 } In fact, in transportModel, there is no function defination for correction(). Thus I do not know how the main solver, PISOFOAM, continue to call the k and epsilon equations. I really appreciate it if anyone can give me some help with this problem. hz283 |
