Class Foam::fv::coefficientMassTransfer Description This simple model generates a mass transfer between two phases calculated from the following expression: \f[ \dot{m}/V = C \alpha \grad \alpha \f] \vartable \dot{m}/V | mass transfer rate per unit volume C | coefficient \alpha | volume fraction of the source phase \endvartable Usage Example usage: \verbatim coefficientMassTransfer { type coefficientMassTransfer; phases (liquid vapour); C [kg/m^2/s] 0.1; } \endverbatim SourceFiles coefficientMassTransfer.C \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ #ifndef coefficientMassTransfer_H #define coefficientMassTransfer_H #include "massTransfer.H" #include "Function1.H" // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // namespace Foam { namespace fv { /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ Class coefficientMassTransfer Declaration \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ class coefficientMassTransfer : public massTransfer { private: // Private Data //- Mass flow rate coefficient.
