porousTransportUpscalingFoam

OpenFOAM solver for the formal upscaling of transport with surface reactions in porous media.

Requirements

OpenFOAM-7 and _Matlab.

Usage

Simply run the Allwmake script to compile the solver and the library with additional boundary conditions.

Content

• transportUpscalingFoam: solver to calculate effective transport coefficients from a reactive transport equation. This effectively solves the cell problems (see references).

• libUpscalingBCs: library containing the required new boundary conditions for transportUpscalingFoam.

• tutorials: contains the packingCell tutorial (main example application) and results from the work cited in the references.

• etc : data and Matlab scripts (Chebfun) for verification.
