reactingFoam tutorial for OpenFOAM 2.1.0

ToTh · July 25, 2012, 08:32

Hello everyone,

I'm new here as well as to the exciting world of CFD.

In my bachelor-thesis I have to simulate a gas combustion using OpenFOAM. I decided to use reactingFoam and found the tutorial for that solver made by Andreas Lundström in 2008 (http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Tu..._firstTutorial) and how to adapt it to OpenFOAM 1.7.

Apparently the "g"-file from the the dieselFoam-Tutorial has to be included in the "constant"-folder of the reactingFoam-case. Unfortunately, however, OpenFOAM 2.1.0 doesn't have any dieselFoam-solver anymore.

Has anyone had that problem, too? Or can anyone please tell me, how to get this tutorial going using OpenFOAM 2.1.0?

Thank you and kind regards!
Toby
