Hi foamers,
I am new to OpenFoam. To find all possible options for a parameter, I need to check the related source codes. How can I find them? For example, I would like use multiphaseEulerFoam to solve fluidized bed. In constant folders, there is a phaseProperties file, where I need to define phases. To define phase particles, I need to specify parameters, including type, diameterModel, constantCoeffs, alphaMax and residualAlpha. Code:
particles { type purePhaseModel; diameterModel constant; constantCoeffs { d 275.0e-6; // mean particle diamter } alphaMax 0.63; // maximum allowable packing fraction residualAlpha 1e-6; } Thank you very much! |

Common methods include the "banana trick" (https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/O...de/Use_bananas) -- e.g. to see what options are available for a given model input -- and foamSearch (https://cfd.direct/openfoam/user-gui...se-management/) -- e.g. to parse through the tutorials, I'd think. Otherwise, grep/find are always your friends (e.g., grep -r inletOutlet).

The command "foamInfo xxx" will solver most problems, which often leads to "OpenFOAM/src/xxx" directory you can learn a lot about.
