Hi all,
I have a suggestion to make. In the waveTransmission BC documentation, "gamma" is defined as "ratio of specific heats". However, this leads to a lot of confusion (as I seen around) when we are dealing with liquids. I believe the correct description would be something like "numerator of the wave speed formula", which ends up being 1 for water. From the .C file: Code:
// Calculate the speed of the field wave w // by summing the component of the velocity normal to the boundary // and the speed of sound (sqrt(gamma_/psi)). ![]() A simple change that can help some users in the future! |
