Customization of scalarTransportFoam
• Based on “実践ソルバー改良(1)” 柴田貴裕
“practical customization of solver (1)” by Takahiro
Shibata
• Target:
▫ Add source term to the existing
scalarTransportFoam

2
Copy solver and case directory
• Make directories
▫ Make directory $FORM_RUN/mySolver
▫ Make directory $FORM_RUN/myCase
• Copy directories
▫ applications/solvers/basic/scalarTransportFoam
to mySolver/scalarTranportFoam
▫ tutorials/basic/scalarTranportFoam
to myCase/

3
Rename solver name
• In mySolver dir
1. Change the name of directory
▫ $ mv scalarTransportFoam ¥
scalarTransportFoam_S
2. Change the name of source code
▫ In scalarTransportFoam_S dir
▫ $mv scalarTransportFoam.C ¥
scalarTransportFoam_S.C
3. Edit “Make/files” as below
scalarTransportFoam_S.C
EXE = $(FOAM_APPBIN)/scalarTranportFoam_S

4
Edit solver
• Add a source term in the transport equation

5
Add the definition of source term
• Edit “createFields.H”
▫ Copy the entry of
“volScalarField T” and
create a new entry
“volScalarField S”

6
Compile and build the new solver
• In the solver directory
▫ wmake

(3) Prepare the initial distribution S
• Create system/setFieldsDict

11
Prepare 0/S from 0/T
• Copy 0/T to 0/S.org
• Edit 0/S.org and then copy to 0/S
