I have made a fluid a fluid heating case in openFoam and Fluent using same boundary conditions. All the results including velocity and heat distribution match nicely. However the highers pressure value in fluent is about 200000 Pascals and in openFoam it is as high as 9^17 Pa.
Sorry but I can not post any other results or pictures here. But It would be a great help if someone can explain how pressure is calculated in chtmultiregionsimplefoam solver. Should I multiply or divide by some other parameter to make the range of the pressure equivalent to that of Fluent? Here is my inlet and outlet velocity boundary conditions: Code:
inlet { type zeroGradient; } outlet { type flowRateInletVelocity; massFlowRate constant -0.742;//(kg/s) Target mass flow through outlet value uniform (0 0 0); } Code:
inlet { type fixedValue; value uniform 0;//$internalField; } outlet { type zeroGradient; value uniform 0;//$internalField; } Code:
inlet { type calculated; value uniform 0;//$internalField; } outlet { type calculated; value uniform 0;//$internalField; } |
