In this repository, a new real gas model for hydrogen based on the Reference Fluid Thermodynamic and Transport Properties Database (REFPROP) v10.0 is provided for the use in the simulation software OpenFOAM v2012.
In a tutorial case of the flow through a critical flow Venturi nozzle, the usage of the new real gas model is shown.
For the start of the simulation, do the following steps:
- `sonicFoam` or
- `decomposePar` and then `mpirun -np 4 sonicFoam -parallel`
3. run `reconstructPar` (if your case was decomposed before)
