atomizationFoam

Features

  • Volume-of-Fluid (VoF) solver for incompressible flows coupled with Lagrangian library
  • Conversion of small VoF elements to Lagrangian parcels to reduce computational cost
  • Support for
    • Particle-particle interaction (collision, coalescence) and secondary breakup
    • Adaptive mesh refinement
    • Fully parallelized
  • Based on interIsoFoam in OpenFOAM v1912

Compilation

  • First, compile the library libAtomization in the src folder.
  • Afterwards, compile the solver atomizationFoam in the application folder.
