[Rotidpor]

Hello everyone.


I'm currently learning to use openFoam. I have succesfully used buoyantSimple/PimpleFoam on several models and I would like to have some hints on programming little handy utilities to limit variables.


I feel like the rho variable is really annoying sometimes when using buoyant solvers... A single bad cell with unrealistic rho max and/or rho min value can crash a whole simulation after a few iterations.



So, instead of trying another mesh, trying to relax rho or try using another model for rho, I would like to limit rho max/min between certain values.
Also, I would like openFoam to return the number of corrected cells to be able to tell if I'm cheating a lot or if it is ok...


Has anyone some hints to program this utility ? I have almost zero knowledge in code. Only things I have found are threads asking how to limit variables but nothing to return the number of "bad" cells.


Thank you all for reading
