Description
Evolves a passive scalar transport equation.
- To specify the field name set the \c field entry
- To employ the same numerical schemes as another field set
the \c schemesField entry,
- The \c diffusivity entry can be set to \c none, \c constant, \c viscosity
- A constant diffusivity is specified with the \c D entry,
- If a momentum transport model is available and the \c viscosity
diffusivety option specified an effective diffusivity may be constructed
from the laminar and turbulent viscosities using the diffusivity
coefficients \c alphal and \c alphat:
\verbatim
D = alphal*nu + alphat*nut
\endverbatim
Example:
\verbatim
#includeFunc scalarTransport(T, alphaD=1, alphaDt=1)
\endverbatim
For incompressible flow the passive scalar may optionally be solved with the
MULES limiter and sub-cycling or semi-implicit in order to maintain
boundedness, particularly if a compressive, PLIC or MPLIC convection
scheme is used.
Example:
\verbatim
#includeFunc scalarTransport(tracer, diffusion=none)
with scheme specification:
div(phi,tracer) Gauss interfaceCompression vanLeer 1;
and solver specification:
tracer
{
nCorr 1;
nSubCycles 3;
MULESCorr no;
nLimiterIter 5;
applyPrevCorr yes;
solver smoothSolver;
smoother symGaussSeidel;
tolerance 1e-8;
relTol 0;
diffusion
{
solver smoothSolver;

tolerance 1e-8;
relTol 0;
}
}
\endverbatim
OpenFOAM Configuration
The main OpenFOAM settings are located in the parent etc/ directory. The bash and csh shells are supported and to configure OpenFOAM source etc/bashrc or etc/cshrc respectively which source the following files in the config.sh or config.csh respectively:
settings: core settingsaliases: aliases for interactive shellsunset: sourced to clear as many OpenFOAM environment settings as possiblempi: MPI communications library settingsensight: application settings for EnSightparaview: application settings for ParaViewscotch: application settings for compiling against scotchmetis: application settings for compiling against metis 5
The config.*/example directories contains various example configuration files for the corresponding shell:
compiler: an example of fine tuning ThirdParty compiler settingsopenmpi: an example of fine tuning openmpi settings for OpenFOAMparaview: an example of chaining to the standard config/paraview with a different ParaView_VERSIONprefs: an example of supplying alternative site-defined settings
