OpenFOAM solver: rhoCentralFoam for CO2

The rhoCentralFoam solver is coupled with the CO2 look-up table. The coupling is not based on the object-oriented way. It may be improved in the future.

Files

• Main solver: CO2FoamSchemeV1
• 2 cases: 1dshocktube, ejector
• Other related modules: thermophysicalModelsCO2, TurbulenceModelCO2. This 2 modules are almost the same as the original ones.
• compute y+: compressiblePlusPostRANS

How to compile

• Compile CO2 table in CO2FoamSchemeV1/CO2 to create .a library
• Compile related libraries: thermophysicalModelCO2 and TurbulenceModelCO2
• Compile main solver with external library (need openblas library)
• When compiling main solver, you need to choose corresponding BC and initialization

How to use

• Use gmsh to create a mesh with physical boundary, use gmshToFoam to convert mesh
• Change constant/polymesh/boundary
• Set system/ file
• Create 0 solution
• Initialise with setFields
• If interpolation use mapFields
• call solver name to run
