Hi together,

I want to simulate the round jet turbulent flow for compressible case. I notice that there exist several solver such as rhoSimpleFoam, rhoPimpleFoam and so on. Which should I use? Or which would you recommend me to test at first?

best regards
Chunkan Yu

Hi,

The solver "rhoSimpleFoam" is for steady simulations and "rhoPimpleFoam" is for transient simulations.

Best regards,
Fumiya
