interCondensatingEvaporatingFoam for closed domain
Hello,
The solver shows a very strange behaviour for alpha
field for closed domain cases. Simply after running the simulation for a while the entire domain reach alpha = 1
. Indeed closed domains pose numerical challenges but usually the problem appears due to p
underspecification not alpha
. I never had a similar experience with interFoam
in closed domain cases.
To reproduce the issue:
- use the existing tutorial for this solver,
condensatingVessel
. - set the
top
patch to wall. - use the same boundary conditions for all fields as the
bottom
patch. - add reference value for pressure in
pimple
subDict.
Note: I am using OpenFOAM-plus updated to commit e6cbe0b11923b2fe3ef24068af8da282db1c0978 to make sure I didn't miss any bug fix.
Thanks for your support, please let me know if further testes are required.
Best wishes,
Hassan
