How can I remove gravity from the InterPhaseChangeFoam solver?
 
I am using the 3.0.1 Open Foam version. I would like to perform simulations of two-phase fluids in space conditions. I am using the interPhaseChangeFoam solver and I would like to remove the influence of gravity in my simulations.

I have already tried to put g=0 in the g file of the case study and it does not work... I think is better to change the solver. This solver seems to have been designed for phase-changes specially in cavity cases and is highly dependent on pressure differences (including hidrostatic pressure wich includes gravity ...) so I am not sure that is possible to remove g from the solver...
