interPhaseChangeFoam with nOuterCorrectors != 1 -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

akidess Senior Member Anton Kidess Join Date: May 2009 Location: Germany Posts: 1,377 Rep Power: 30	I'm comparing the implementations of alphaEqn and alphaEqnSubCycle in interFoam and interPhaseChangeFoam, and they're pretty much equivalent except that interPhaseChangeFoam only calls interface.correct() if nOuterCorr is 1. This doesn't make sense to me, because if nOuterCorr is not 1, the interface curvature is never updated, and this would naturally lead to wrong results. If someone can confirm this is a bug I will file a bug report with OpenCFD. If it isn't, I would appreciate an explanation why
