This is like the scalarTrasport function except that the transported
scalar is confined to a single phase of a multiphase simulation. In
addition to the usual specification for the scalarTransport function
(i.e., a field, schemes and solution parameters), the user needs to
specify the phase-flux or a pressure field which can be used to generate
it.
Example usage for interFoam:
phaseScalarTransport1
{
type phaseScalarTransport;
libs ("libsolverFunctionObjects.so");
field s.water;
p p_rgh;
}
Example usage for reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam:
phaseScalarTransport1
{
type phaseScalarTransport;
libs ("libsolverFunctionObjects.so");
field s.water;
alphaPhi alphaRhoPhi.water;
rho thermo:rho.water;
}
The function will write out both the per-unit-phase field that is solved
for (s.water in the above examples) and also the mixture-total field
(alphaS.water), which is often more convenient for post-processing.
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:
