hi to all,

I want simulate a problem and i need to set outlets 20% and 80%. as i don't have outlets velocities i set pressure to reach desired flow rates from each outlet by try and error. i do this by k-e and reach to answer. but in Rans and LES i should use averaged flows.
i need phi mean parameter same as uMean and pMean which is defined in controlDict.
How can i tell OF to calculate phiMean for each time step for patches.

Thanks in advance,

Add this to your controlDict file:

functions 
(
       mflow1
       {
             type            faceSource;
             functionObjectLibs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
             enabled         true;
             outputControl   timeStep;
             outputInterval  1;
             log             true;
             valueOutput     false;
             source          patch;
             sourceName      outlet1;
             operation       sum;
             fields
             (
                   phi
             );
       }

       mflow2
       {
             type            faceSource;
             functionObjectLibs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
             enabled         true;
             outputControl   timeStep;
             outputInterval  1;
             log             true;
             valueOutput     false;
             source          patch;
             sourceName      outlet2;
             operation       sum;
             fields
             (
                   phi
             );
  }
);

Thanks for your answer.

I tried it. but i don't have phiMean in time steps folders. what should i do?

[maysmech]

i need phiMean or phi which uses uMean.
