Hi
I have designed a cyclone separator, and i wish to know what is the massflow in each of its two outlets, is there any tool in OpenFOAM to be called on each outlet patch to obtain this value...? Best regards Alex |

Hi Chegdan
Thanks for your answer Where can i download a tar.gz containing the sources for swak4foam for OF-1.5-dev...? or Is there no swak4foam for OF-1.5-dev, and i must compile the simpleFunctionObjects instead...? I ask this because i have 3 versions of OF in my lappy, 1.7.1, 2.0.1 and 1.5-dev which i need for the lagrangian particle transport solvers... BRGDS Alex |

Thanks Bernhard,
I have already compiled it, and added the entries to controlDict, works like a charm... Thks |
