Hi all,

I am running a 1 degree angle wedge case using sprayFoam (OF-2.2.x) for diesel spray simulation. The injector is placed along the axis-symmetrical line.

When I extract the Liquid Penetration Length (LPL), the LPL is found to be fluctuating. Refer to the attachments. However, vapour penetration length (VPL) does not face this problem.

When LPL is extracted using dieselFoam (OF-2.0.x), the fluctuation did not happen. So, I am suspecting it is a coding problem in sprayFoam 2.2.x. I am still new to OpenFOAM thus solving this code problem would be a tough challenge for me.

Any help with this is greatly appreciated!


Attached is the sprayCloudProperties and blockMeshDict if needed.

Thanks.

HI,

I have a question that is not relevant to yours.

Do you happen to have any problem with total injected mass? I have been having problems with incorrect injected mass on wedge cases.

Regards
RJ

Hi,

Yes. If im not mistaken i was also having a problem with incorrect mass injected.

I have stopped using OF22x and revert to an older version, i.e. OF20x which seems to have less problem for my wedge case. Sorry but I think I might not be much help in OF22x~

Cheers

Hi,

Did you run checkMesh?? Did it show an error? if no, then most likely is not your mesh problem, might be your settings problem~

hi

i got the same error message, I'm running a transient, compressible gas pipe flow simulation, using sonicFoam

i get the following error after 0.01482 sec with a time step of 1e-05, according to checkMesh my mesh is ok, I'm guessing its something to do with the settings, but I'm not sure what exactly

Code:
Time = 0.01483

I would like to know what is causing this error, or where would be a good place to start looking to resolve the issue

any advice would be welcome

mturcios777 will become famous soon enough
When you say your injector is on the axis, do you mean directly on the axis? Which direction is it pointing? And how are you extracting the penetration length?

you need to put neighbour patch as front and back instead of axis.

When LPL is extracted using dieselFoam (OF-2.0.x), the fluctuation did not happen. So, I am suspecting it is a coding problem in sprayFoam 2.2.x. I am still new to OpenFOAM thus solving this code problem would be a tough challenge for me.

Any help with this is greatly appreciated!


Attached is the sprayCloudProperties and blockMeshDict if needed.

Thanks.

Hi ahcai
my project is exactly similiar to your work and I am running a 1 degree angle wedge case using sprayFoam (OF-2.3.x) for diesel spray simulation. The injector is placed along the axis-symmetrical line.
can you help me how to extract the Liquid Penetration Length (LPL) and vapour penetration length (VPL)?
thanks.

Hi Ah Cai,
I want display the parameteres LPL and VPL in paraview, and then extract the values to plot (without have to write a post-processing function if it's possilbe). Could you explain me how did you get this values?
Thanks.
PD: I'm using sprayFoam in OF v2.3.0

Hello,

Can anybody please help me in figuring out on how to extract spray length or spray penetration from sprayFoam results. I have simulated the case using foamJob utility to extract log files.

There is a context in log file "Liquid penetration 95% (m)" what does it mean?

I have also used foamVTK to generate VTK output.

Should I load VTK using paraview and extract the parcel data?. I am very confused rigth now.

Can someone please help me to figure out the solution to my problem.

Thanks in advance.
Yasho

Hello everybody
I have the same problem, may anyone explain how can I extract Liquid Penetration Length (LPL) and vapour penetration length (VPL)?

Greetings to all, although I'm coming rather late to look into this.

@omid20110: I finally taken a look at the PM you sent me. In it you mentioned:

As many users have the same problem I think there should be an answer for all of them.
Thanks in advance
Which brings me to your question and all of the other questions above:

So here's the problem: there is no indication of which tutorial case or any other case I can look at to study myself. I'm unfortunately not familiar with this topic.

The best I can do right now is wave my finger at this wiki page: https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_dieselFoam - and ask: Is this the type of case you are running?

Either way, the best would be to let us know which tutorial case can be used as a reference to study it and so that I or anyone else can figure out how to use it.

Best regards,
Bruno

Hello everybody,
I have gone through this thread and many other threads on this forum. But still, I think the issue is open and there is no specific information about how to plot vapor penetration length. According to one paper which I read recently, its definition is
Quote:
It is a distance aling the spray axis, from injector tip, to the point where fuel mass fraction is 0.001
.
I could extract LPL and SMD from the log file. But what is the variable thats associated with VPL? or should I modify the solver so that it ill be written in the log file?.

Till now, I have tried utilities like sample and probe. But I dont think they will give the answer.

Any help in this will be surely useful.
