Hi guys,

I am in dire need of help. Please help me with this. I am tyring to add a new transport model in thermophysicalModel which takes input as a csv file and converts it to interpolation table(mu vs T). I am using chtMultiRegionFoam. I made my own Model in specie/transport with all kinds of operator overloading functions. I did linking properly of new "mySpecie" and "myBasic". I defined the thermophysicsType (typedef <>) for my new model, I defined new rhoThermo type.
After compiling, when I use new thermophysical model, it throws an error and the list of thermo-types it shows doesn't even show my model. when I implemented same in rhoReaction and repeat all previous steps, It shows in the list of thermophysical models which the OpenFOAM throws.

Any Idea about where I'll be missing?

Tobermory will become famous soon enough
If your new model is not listed as an option, then your model changes have clearly not loaded. Perhaps you missed a reference to your new library in controlDict? Just check carefully, and methodically through each step that you have taken and maybe you will find the error.

To be honest, you have provided so little information about what you have done that it is impossible to help you ...

Sorry! I have pasted here some snippet. Please see if you can find issue.

Thanks!


Here is the snippet of myThermophysicalModels/mySpecie/include/thermophysicsType.H :
Code:
#include "pcmTransport.H"

typedef
    pcmTransport
    <
        species::thermo
        <
            hConstThermo
            <
                perfectGas<specie>
            >,
            sensibleEnthalpy
        >
    > PCMTransport;
here is the snippet of mySpecie/Make/file:

Code:
atomicWeights/atomicWeights.C
mySpecie/specie.C
reaction/reactions/makeReactions.C
reaction/reactions/makeLangmuirHinshelwoodReactions.C
reaction/reactions/makeMichaelisMentenReactions.C
LIB = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/libspecie
here is the snippet of mySpecie/Make/options:
Code:
EXE_INC = \
	-I$(WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR)/src/my_lib/lnInclude \
	-I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude \
	-I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude

LIB_LIBS = -lOpenFOAM \
	   -L$(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN) \
           -lcsvReader \
	   -lfiniteVolume \
           -lmeshTools
here is the snippet of myBasic/rhoThermo/rhoThermos:

Code:
#include "pcmTransport.H" // rest of necessary files are already included

makeThermos
(
    rhoThermo,
    heRhoThermo,
    pureMixture,
    pcmTransport,
    sensibleEnthalpy,
    hConstThermo,
    perfectGas,
    specie
);
here is the snippet of myBasic/Make/file:
Code:
myBasicThermo/myBasicThermo.C
fluidThermo/fluidThermo.C

psiThermo/psiThermo.C
psiThermo/psiThermos.C

rhoThermo/rhoThermo.C
rhoThermo/rhoThermos.C
rhoThermo/liquidThermo.C

derivedFvPatchFields/mixedEnergy/mixedEnergyFvPatchScalarField.C

derivedFvPatchFields/energyJump/energyJump/energyJumpFvPatchScalarField.C
derivedFvPatchFields/energyJump/energyJumpAMI/energyJumpAMIFvPatchScalarField.C

LIB = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/libfluidThermophysicalModels

here is the snippet of myBasic/Make/option:

Code:
EXE_INC = \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude \
    -I$(WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR)/src/my_lib/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/transportModels/compressible/lnInclude \
    -I$(WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR)/src/thermophysicalModels/mySpecie/lnInclude \
    -I$(WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR)/src/thermophysicalModels/thermophysicalProperties/lnInclude 
    

LIB_LIBS = \
    -L$(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN) \
    -lcsvReader \
    -lspecie \
    -lcompressibleTransportModels \
    -lfiniteVolume \
    -lmeshTools

and finally, here is the snippet of chtMultiRegionFoam's Make/option:

Code:
EXE_INC = \
    -I. \
    -I./fluid \
    -I./solid \
    -I./porousFluid \
