Face interpolation in a quadtree grid (or non-conformal grid) in openfoam

banji · October 29, 2015, 12:32

Hello,

Please, is there some reference out there that explains the interpolation technique openfoam uses from the centroid to the face of each control volume on a quadtree grid - I mean a grid with hanging nodes.

Thanks in anticipation.

Quick answer: I'm not certain, but Hrvoje Jasak's PhD thesis does explain this: http://powerlab.fsb.hr/ped/kturbo/Op...jeJasakPhD.pdf
