multiphaseEuler Class Reference

Solver module for a system of any number of compressible fluid phases with a common pressure, but otherwise separate properties. The type of phase model is run time selectable and can optionally represent multiple species and in-phase reactions. The phase system is also run time selectable and can optionally represent different types of momentum, heat and mass transfer. More...

Detailed Description

Solver module for a system of any number of compressible fluid phases with a common pressure, but otherwise separate properties. The type of phase model is run time selectable and can optionally represent multiple species and in-phase reactions. The phase system is also run time selectable and can optionally represent different types of momentum, heat and mass transfer.

Uses the flexible PIMPLE (PISO-SIMPLE) solution for time-resolved and pseudo-transient and steady simulations.

Optional fvModels and fvConstraints are provided to enhance the simulation in many ways including adding various sources, Lagrangian particles, surface film etc. and constraining or limiting the solution.
