Description

This dataset comprises some representative input files for OpenFOAM integrated with RheoTool to simulate viscoelastic fluids in three single constriction configurations (2D, 3D, and axisymmetric cases) and a face-centered cubic (FCC) packing as a realistic granular materials. These cases were used to compare viscoelastic effects in porous media against inelastic shear‑thinning behaviour modeled by the Carreau model.
