Hi everyone,

I am confusing the way to compute rho1 and rho2 of solver compressibleInterFoam. In createFields, they are declared as:
const volScalarField& rho1 = mixture.thermo1().rho();
const volScalarField& rho2 = mixture.thermo2().rho();
and mixture is an object derived from twoPhaseMixtureThermo class as:
twoPhaseMixtureThermo mixture(U, phi);
when I look back the twoPhaseMixtureThermo class, I found the rhoThermo class inside.
So, I am confusing that:

• rho1 and rho2 of each phase are computed in this class?

• If it is true, how we compute deltaRho in class rhoThermo that is specify by:
  void Foam::rhoThermo::correctRho(const Foam::volScalarField& deltaRho)
  {
  rho_ += deltaRho;
  }

Could someone help me to make them clear?
I thank you very much in advance.

Hi, ndtrong.

The rho is computed by EOS in "specie/equationOfState". The perfectGas is usually for idea gas, and perfectFluid is for water.

Best.
