Class
    Foam::solvers::fluid
 
Description
    Solver module for steady or transient turbulent flow of compressible fluids
    with heat-transfer for HVAC and similar applications, with optional
    mesh motion and change.
 
    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,
    radiation, surface film etc. and constraining or limiting the solution.
