What is the meaning of the following codes in the DPMFoam

mgao1 · January 13, 2021, 12:26

Hi guys,

I am recently learning DPMFoam, but I got difficulties in understanding the following codes:

fvVectorMatrix cloudSU(kinematicCloud.SU(Uc));

I am wondering where I can find the kinematicCloud.SU function, I have checked the kinematicCloud.H and .C file, but there isn't any useful information.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

It's the momentum source term. You can find the function in KinematicCloudI.H.

Hi Utkan

Thanks for your reply. I compiled the DPMFoam to a new solver, and I finally found it.
