Fluid Models

Available fluid models and their configuration.

icoFluid

Transient, incompressible, laminar Newtonian flow with density-weighted momentum and static pressure, on static or moving meshes, using a PISO corrector loop.

interFluid

Transient, incompressible, isothermal two-phase flow of immiscible fluids using algebraic VOF interface capturing (MULES) and the PIMPLE algorithm.

overPimpleFluid

Transient, incompressible, turbulent single-phase flow on moving overset (Chimera) meshes using the PIMPLE algorithm.

pimpleFluid

Transient, incompressible, turbulent single-phase flow on static or moving meshes using the PIMPLE algorithm.

potentialFluid

Inviscid, irrotational, incompressible potential flow; solves a Laplace equation for the velocity potential to generate a divergence-free initial flow field.

rhoPimpleFluid

Transient, compressible, turbulent single-phase flow with energy equation on static or moving meshes using the PIMPLE algorithm.
