Hi everyone,


I'm trying to implement a new model for the dynamic contact angle, but as a starting point I'm triying to compile the alphaConstantContactAngle with a new name: yokoiAlphaConstantContactAngle just to see if I'll be able to implement then the model.

I've made all the changes needed in the files .C and .H but when I try to compile I have doubts about what to write in options and files , since this is not a regular BC stored in finiteVolume directory.

In fact, when adding the entry

libs ("xxx.so");

it is not able to load it.

Attached are the two posibilities I've been testing unsuccessfully.

I hope you can help me, I'm pretty lost.

Regards,

Adolfo

Hi Adolfo,


why dont you copy the aplhaContactAngle folder in the twoPhaseFlow folder and rename the copiied folder as you want. Then rename the .C and .H file and change the header entries to the new names and add your subfolder and the new .C file in the files file in the make folder.


This would look like:


/twoPhaseFlow/Make
/twoPhaseFlow/alphaContactAngle/
/twoPhaseFlow/alphaContactAngle/yokoiContactAngle/


files:
alphaContactAngle/constantAlphaContactAngle/constantAlphaContactAngleFvPatchScalarField.C

alphaContactAngle/yokoiAlphaContactAngle/yokoiAlphaContactAngleFvPatchScalarField.C alphaContactAngle/temperatureDependentAlphaContactAngle/temperatureDependentAlphaContactAngleFvPatchScalar Field.C alphaContactAngle/dynamicAlphaContactAngle/dynamicAlphaContactAngleFvPatchScalarField.C alphaContactAngle/timeVaryingAlphaContactAngle/timeVaryingAlphaContactAngleFvPatchScalarField.C alphaFixedPressure/alphaFixedPressureFvPatchScalarField.C
LIB = $(FOAM_LIBBIN)/libtwoPhasePropertiesalphaContactAngle/alphaContactAngle/alphaContactAngleFvPatchScalarField.C




can follow my hint? Is this not practical for you?


kind regards

Thank you for your reply but finally I make it work few weeks ago, although I forgot to say that here. So in case anyone could find this helpful along Robin's reply, my files in the Make folder look like:


files


yokoiDynamicAlphaContactAngleFvPatchScalarField.C

LIB = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/yokoiBC




options


EXE_INC = \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/transportModels/twoPhaseProperties/alphaContactAngle/alphaContactAngle

EXE_LIBS = \
-lfiniteVolume

Hi - I am also trying to compile a new contact angle model. That would be highly appreciated if you could please describe step by step how you made your new model work?

I guess, fist thing is to copy an existing model (e.g. constantAlphaContactAngle folder) in src/transportModels/twoPhaseProperties/alphaContactAngle and make necessary changes in .C and .H files. I am not sure about the next steps? should we modify the content of files and options in Make folder then? or we need to create a new files and options somewhere?
Also, what will be next step all the way to compile the new model?

Thanks
