Hi,
I am trying to run the shocktube example within rhoCentralFoam. openFoam version 4.0.
However, it reports a "fatal error":
------------
FOAM FATAL ERROR:
Unknown psiThermo type ePsiThermo<pureMixture<constTransport<specieThermo <hConstThermo<perfectGas>>>>>
-------
The psiThermo type that I am using is the one just downloaded from the openfoam repository for v4.x:
-----------------------------------------
thermoType
{
type hePsiThermo;
mixture pureMixture;
transport const;
thermo hConst;
equationOfState perfectGas;
specie specie;
energy sensibleInternalEnergy;
}
---------------------

Even I tryied with:
----------------------------
thermoType
{
type heRhoThermo;
mixture pureMixture;
transport const;
thermo hConst;
equationOfState perfectGas;
specie specie;
energy sensibleEnthalpy;
}
--------------
which seems to be in the list of the 44 valid Thermo Types reported by openfoam.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Gustavo Cordoba

Hi again,
I fixed it.

The silly problem arised when I used the examples that comes with the Debian Jessie install package, which produces the error.
Nevertheless, by using the OpenFoam 4.x repository tutorial, the error does not appear any more. Now all is ok.

Thanks,

Gustavo
