The new multiphaseEulerFoam is based on reactingMultiphaseEulerFoam with some
improvements and rationalisation to assist maintenance and further development.
The phase system solution has been enhanced to handle two phases more
effectively and all two-phase specific models updated for compatibility so that
multiphaseEulerFoam can also replace reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam.
When running multiphaseEulerFoam with only two-phases the default behaviour is
to solve for both phase-fractions but optionally a reference phase can be
specified so that only the other phase-fraction is solved, providing better
compatibility with the behaviour of reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam.
All reactingMultiphaseEulerFoam and reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam tutorials have
been updated for multiphaseEulerFoam.
Description
This functionObject writes the phase-fraction map field alpha.map with
incremental value ranges for each phase
e.g., with values 0-1 for water, 1-2 for air, 2-3 for oil etc.
Example of function object specification:
\verbatim
phaseMap
{
type phaseMap;
libs ("libreactingEulerFoamFunctionObjects.so");
writeControl writeTime;
}
\endverbatim
Usage
\table
Property | Description | Required | Default value
type | type name: phaseMap | yes |
\endtable
This replaces the alphas functionality previously built-in to
reactingMultiphaseEulerFoam so that the storage, calculation and writing of the
phase map field is now under user control.
