Hi Foamers,
I'm using OpenFOAM 2.1.x. I noticed that in the file reactingOneDim.C, in the energy equation: fvScalarMatrix TEqn ( fvm::ddt(rhoCp, T_) - fvm::laplacian(K_, T_) == chemistrySh_ + fvc::div(phiQr) + fvc::div(phiGas) ); the components ddt(rhoCp, T_), laplacian(K_, T_) and chemistrySh_ all have the same dimension = [1 -1 -3 0 0 0 0] or J/s/m3, but the components div(phiQr) and div(phiGas) have a different dimension = [1 1 -3 0 0 0 0] or J/s/m. Does anyone know the reason for that? Am I missing something? Regards, Paulo |
