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;
smoother symGaussSeidel;
tolerance 1e-8;
relTol 0;
}
}
\endverbatim

About OpenFOAM
OpenFOAM is a free, open source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package released by the OpenFOAM Foundation. It has a large user base across most areas of engineering and science, from both commercial and academic organisations. OpenFOAM has an extensive range of features to solve anything from complex fluid flows involving chemical reactions, turbulence and heat transfer, to solid dynamics and electromagnetics.
