Hello,everyone:

I'm very interested in the cavitation flow around airfoil. Furthermore, I want to use the interPhaseChangeFoam solver in the directory of application. But I can't understand how to set the three files of 0、constant and system ? Could you give me some advice about it? Or some Tutorials about the cavitaion flow.
thank you very much!

Hi there you can find a tutorial for this solver here http://www.tfd.chalmers.se/~hani/kur...ChangeFoam.pdf
chalmers is the right address for many solvers
best regards

and what version of openFoam do you use ?
you can find a case study in openFoam 1.6.x and later

My purpose is adding Zwart and Singhal models to interPhaseChangeFoam solver.
I transform Saur model to Zwart model successfully but transforming Saur model to Singhal model is faild!!!
my error is :

phaseChangeTwoPhaseMixtures/phaseChangeTwoPhaseMixture/phaseChangeTwoPhaseMixture.C:48: error: no matching function for call to ‘Foam::dimensioned<double>::dimensioned()’

Can you help me???

[nimasam]

Foam::dimensioned<double>::dimensioned()

there is no such function in OpenFOAM, maybe you want a dimensionedField or a dimensionedScalar or ......

[vahid.najafi]

thanks for your idea,but i need more Explanation about it!!!

dear vahid
whats your variable type?

Hello dear foames,
I have an easy question, i wanna add the kinetic Turbulence energy (k) in model <<Sauer>> for solver <<interPhaseChangeFoam>>. For this purpose, after adding turbulence library in the option file, for introducing “k” in the Sauer model, this parameter is added as the follow

// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Member Functions * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //

Foam::tmp<Foam::volScalarField>
Foam:haseChangeTwoPhaseMixtures::SchnerrSauer::r Rb
(
const volScalarField& limitedAlpha1
) const
{
return pow
(
((k_*4*constant::mathematical:i*n_)/3)
*limitedAlpha1/(1.0 + alphaNuc() - limitedAlpha1),
1.0/3.0
);
}


when I execute wmake in terminal ,this error is appeared.

phaseChangeTwoPhaseMixtures/SchnerrSauer/SchnerrSauer.C:79: error: ‘k_’ was not declared in this scope
make: *** [Make/linux64GccDPOpt/SchnerrSauer.o] Error 1

could everyone to tell me the steps of how to add the kinetic energy in the Sauer model so that after any iteration, new updated value is entered to this model ?

Regards

where do you define K_ ?
it should be read from somewhere

Hi,
I am using InterPhaseChange solver to simulate cavitation in OF2.1x
Although by old versions (i.e. OF1.5) I can get good results, with this new version results are not good at all. Dose anybody else get similar conflicts?
