Writing out stress tensor- Error with transportProperties

suraj · March 19, 2009, 15:52

Hello all!
I am using OpenFOAM-1.5 to simulate a water jet. I want to write out stress components at each time step.
I am using the stressComponents post processing utility, but I got this error:
keyword transportModel is undefined in dictionary "/home/suraj/OpenFOAM/suraj-1.5/run/smallStepHighRes/constant/transportProperties"

file: /home/suraj/OpenFOAM/suraj-1.5/run/smallStepHighRes/constant/transportProperties from line 19 to line 59.

From function dictionary::lookupEntry(const word& keyword) const
in file db/dictionary/dictionary.C at line 213.
I checked my transportProperties dictionary and it has all the necessary entries. I am using Newtonian transportModel.
Is there anything I am doing fundamentally wrong?
Thanks,
Regards,
Suraj

Hi Suraj,
I am having the same problem (using InterFOAM to simulate a jet). Did you ever find a solution for your problem? If so, Please point me in the right direction.

Thanks.
