Hi all,

I am trying to simulate a gas mixing with air, for this I am using reactingFoam with chemistry and combustion turned off. However when I run the solver I get this error message.

    From function static Foam::autoPtr<T> Foam::basicChemistryModel::New(const Foam::fvMesh&, const Foam::word&) [with Thermo = Foam::psiChemistryModel]
    in file lnInclude/basicChemistryModelTemplates.C at line 117.

does anyone know why this keeps happening to me? Is it something to do with my thermophysical settings?

Well I figured out what the problem was, it turns out that my combination of thermo models is not supported in this combination of models, so I am going to attempt to compile a new version of the library which supports my combination of thermo models

Hi，sorry to bother.
I came up with the same problem when using reactingFoam.

--> FOAM FATAL ERROR: 
Unknown basicChemistryModel type ode

All solver/methodcombinations for this thermodynamic model:

All solver/method/reactionThermo/thermoPhysics combinations are:

Could you give me some suggestions ？Thanks.
