chemistryModel species command¶

Syntax¶

Defined in couplingProperties dictionary.

chemistryModels
(
    species
);
speciesProps
{
    ChemistryFile           "$casePath/CFD/constant/foam.inp";
    tempFieldName           "T";
    densityFieldName        "rho";
    voidfractionFieldName   "voidfraction";
    totalMoleFieldName      "molarConc";
    partTempName            "partTemp";
    partRhoName             "partRho";
    verbose                 switch1;
    Nevery                  number1;
}

• ChemistryFile = path to file, where the reacting species are listed

• T = (optional, default “T”) name of the finite volume temperature field

• rho = (optional, default “rho”) name of the finite volume density field

• voidfraction = (optional, default “voidfraction”) name of the finite volume void fraction field

• molarConc = (optional, default “molarConc”) name of the finite volume molar concentration field

• partTemp = (optional, default “partTemp”) name of the finite volume cell averaged particle temperature field

• partRho = (optional, default “partRho”) name of the finite volume cell averaged density temperature field

• switch1 = (optional, default false) flag to output verbose information

• number1 = (optional, default 1) number to adjust execution interval

Examples¶

chemistryModels
(
    species
);
speciesProps
{
     ChemistryFile     "$casePath/CFD/constant/foam.inp";
     verbose           false;
}

Description¶

The chemistry model performs the calculation of chemical reactional effects acting on each DEM particle. The species model is the model, where the specified species fields (from the foam.inp folder) are initialized, and information such as temperature, density, molar concentration and more importantly the molar fractions are transferred to DEM side.

Restrictions¶

none
