Display temperature dependent material properties

vasava · November 20, 2014, 06:47

I am using chtMultiRegionSimpleFoam to simulate a fluid flow passing by heated walls. The material properties (density, viscosity, Cp etc)are temperature dependent.

Code:

rhoCoeffs<8>     ( x x x ......);
CpCoeffs<8>     ( x x x ......);

Is there any way to plot the contours of the material properties? Is is possible with paraview or do I have to modifying the solver somehow?

In swak4foam there is a utility named writeAdditionalFields. It writes fields other than the default ones but not the material properties.
