Class
    Foam::solvers::compressibleMultiphaseVoF
 
Description
    Solver module for the solution of multiple compressible, isothermal
    immiscible fluids using a VOF (volume of fluid) phase-fraction based
    interface capturing approach, with optional mesh motion and mesh topology
    changes including adaptive re-meshing.
 
    The momentum and other fluid properties are of the "mixture" and a single
    momentum equation is solved.
 
    A mixture approach for momentum transport is provided in which a single
    laminar, RAS or LES model is selected to model the momentum stress.
 
    Uses the flexible PIMPLE (PISO-SIMPLE) solution for time-resolved and
    pseudo-transient and steady simulations.
