SMD or D32 calculation in prostar

krishnag2002 · October 17, 2012, 04:56

Hello,

I want to plot SMD or D32 droplets on the plane. Can anybody help me for the formula of SMD.

Thank you very much in advance.

The best way is to code the integrals (calculation) in fortran & place the code in the posdat.f user subroutine. That way D32 will get calculated when the job solves.

You can do the calculations in a Prostar macro processing the ccmt file. But when you have large droplet counts, it is very slow.

Thank you so much Pauli for your reply.

Do you have a code for calculating SMD. If you have please share with me.

Thank you.
