So I have this for my thermophsicalProperties for steam and I'm running it with the buoyantPimpleFoam hotRoom (slightly altered) case with nMoles 10 and another run with nMoles 100 and I get the same results?
Code:
FoamFile { version 2.0; format ascii; class dictionary; location "constant"; object thermophysicalProperties; } // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // thermoType hRhoThermo<pureMixture<constTransport<specieThermo<hConstThermo<perfectGas>>>>>; pRef 101325; mixture { specie { nMoles 10; molWeight 18.02; } thermodynamics { Cp 2.26; Hf 333700; } transport { mu .000000001; Pr .000000001; } } // ************************************************************************* // I did change my 0/T file to this Code:
FoamFile { version 2.0; format ascii; class volScalarField; location "0"; object T; } // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // dimensions [0 0 0 1 0 0 0]; internalField uniform 273; boundaryField { wall { type zeroGradient; } bottom { type compressible::turbulentHeatFluxTemperature; heatSource power;// or flux q uniform 20000; alphaEff kappaEff; K basicThermo; Cp uniform 897;// steam value uniform 673.5; KName K; } } |

Nevermind, I think I figured it out. I had too many moles to begin with. After changing one of the systems (with less moles) to nMoles .01 there was definitely a big difference.
