Joachim Senior Member Joachim Join Date: Mar 2012 Location: Paris, France Posts: 145 Rep Power: 15	Hi everyone! My apologies if the question is stupid, but how do we get the Mach number in incompressible solvers?? I can only define velocities in the boundary conditions. This would not be a problem if I knew my temperature/speed of sound, but I don't. Is there a default value in simpleFoam/pimpleFoam? Thank you very much for your help! Joachim
