# Hydrogen-Real-Gas-Model
In this repository, a new real gas model for hydrogen based on the REFPROP database is provided for OpenFOAM v2012.
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.

## Tutorial
In a tutorial case, the usage of the new real gas model is shown.
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:
1. run <blockMesh && extrudeMesh>
2. run either:
a) <sonicFoam> or
b) <decomposePar> and then <mpirun -np 4 sonicFoam -parallel>
For the post-processing, you might need to:
3. run reconstructPar (if your case was decomposed before)
