Temperature rhoPorousMRFPimpleFoam

Rapha · October 4, 2011, 06:04

Hi Foamers,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how the temperature is calculated in the rhoPorousMRFPimpleFoam solver? There isn't a T eqn and I can't seem to find where in the code it is actually solved, even though when I display it in paraFoam you get the temperature distribution. The main aim of this is so that I can modify the thermal diffusivity for different regions within the mesh.

Thanks,
Rapha

Hi Rapha

Did you find where T is defined?

Thanks.
