A.L.Verminburger is on a distinguished road
I have encountered a distinction being made between compressible and incompressible flows quite often. I don't really understand why it is so important?

I do understand that the problem I am working on has an incompressible flow, i.e. 0.3 > M.

But where do I enable the incompressible setting in Fluent? I do not seem to find the answer neither in the user guide nor the tutorials?
