The model of ‘V—T energy exchange’ #122

Closed THE-NAME closed 1 year ago

THE-NAME commented 1 year ago

Hi Dr. Vincent,

I had a problem learning "How to CFD" from hy2Foam. In Section 2.1 of D "Non-equilibrium", the V-T model has three options, namely LeMANSMWP, MillikanWhitePark, and MillikanWhite. But there are only two explanations for the meaning: Park's correction or not. I set up the case based on the "Thermo-chemical and transport models" in section 1.3 of "RAM CII spacecraft" in TUTORIALS. The case calls for V-T energy transfer: Landau-Teller, tabulated Millikan-White coefficients, Park's correction. This problem was encountered when modifying the "thermo2TModel" file. I wonder if you could solve my doubts.

Thanks, Wang

Hi Wang, I see, I should have removed MillikanWhitePark, which is experimental and whose correction term isn't quite right. LeMANSMWP includes Park's correction, MillikanWhite doesn't. I edited the website. Thanks, Vincent
