Calculate and Plot Rate of Erosion (in kg/m2.s) in OpenFOAM

farahiam · November 9, 2017, 05:26

Hello dear users,

I am new to Erosion modelling and currently trying to work on the Cyclone tutorial in MPPICFoam solver in OpenFOAM.

I would like to calculate and plot in ParaFOAM the rate of erosion of the model but I do not know how.

From the variables available in ParaFOAM, there are only velocity, pressure and turbulence (k, nut) for the transport fluid.

Could anyone please help me how to measure the erosion rate?

Thank you in advance!

Regards,
Ayu
