Hello,
What is the difference between thermoFoam and scalarTransportFoam? scalarTransportFoam solves a scalartransportequation and thermoFoam solver the energy equations on a frozen flow filed, temperature acts as the passive scalar. How are they different? |

TheromFoam solves the temperature with the flow. It must be used, if the flow depends on the temperature.
