Summary0003737: compressibleInterFoam reads fvConstraints for limitTemperature but is not applied
DescriptioncompressibleInterFoam reads in fvConstraints for limitTemperature but does not seem to apply the constraint.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Steps To ReproduceAdd fvConstraints limitTemperature to a compressibleInterFoam tutorial. I did this with sloshingTank2D. Here are the fvConstraints added:
------------------fvConstraints----------------------
limitTair
{
    type limitTemperature;
    selectionMode all;
    min 310;
    max 500;
    phase air;
}
limitTwater
{
    type limitTemperature;
    selectionMode all;
    min 310;
    max 500;
    phase water;
}
--------------------
I tried temperatures below and above the temperature of the case but it doesn't seem to matter.
Additional Informationdev-af3769dc4e89 is my version.

This functionality is useful for cases where guesses for T0 are negative. This is not always the best approach to limit temperature, but can be helpful during case start-up.

Please let me know if you need more information.

The current limitTemperature fvConstraint does not work with compressibleInterFoam as this solver is unique in that it solves the mixture temperature equation rather than an energy equation and consequently will need either special treatment in limitTemperature or a special fvConstraint.

Would you like to fund the implementation of this new fvConstraint?

Ok, that makes sense now. This must be why the limitTemperature functions correctly for multiphaseEulerFoam. I would consider funding this; we are currently Silver level supporters but I am assuming this would be beyond the scope of that funding. Do you have a rough idea of how many hours would need to be funded to accomplish something like this?
