Hi all,

is there a possibility to solve the rhoPorousMRFLTPimpleFoam with steam (water vapor) as fluid ???? Or any other solver???
I don't want to simulate condensation or evaporation. Only the folw of vapor.

Some details about the simulation:
I want to simulate the flow of water vapor in a turbocharger. The pressure at the inlet is about 2.5 bar abs. and at the outlet 1 bar. The velocity in the turbocharger is about 200 m/s - 300 m/s (no supersonic).

At the moment I simulate it with air. But water vapor is rot a ideal gas.
Some ideas????

kind regards
Florian
