How to use Paraview to view results when finished running reactingFoam?

FlameKan · June 3, 2019, 11:39

Hi guys,

I am running the Sandia FlameD with reactingFoam. After running for 3000 time steps, I'd like to view the results in ParaView. But there is no such a .foam file to be loaded to Paraview, like the one "cavity.foam" of the tutorial case.

Can anyone help me on this? Thank you very much.

Type in terminal (in your case directory):
"touch myname.foam" and myname.foam file will appear in your case directory.

It works ! Thanks!
But when I tried using paraFoam, it did not work. There was an error message showing: environment value not set. Can you help on this?
