Hello,


I am using MPPICFoam, and I have added a new force submodel to the solver. I want to modify the parcel velocity from within the newly added submodel, but it seems that I can only access it due to this "const" declaration. See bolded "const" declaration in code snippet below.

template<class CloudType>
Foam::forceSuSp Foam::PlessisMasliyahDragForce<CloudType>::calcCoupled
(
    const typename CloudType::parcelType& p,
    const scalar dt,
    const scalar mass,
    const scalar Re,
    const scalar muc
) const

I have tried to code a modification to the particle velocity but it always returns errors. Is there a way to modify the particle velocity directly within a submodel like this?


Thank you for any help!
Austin
