Then I attempted to try the flow around a hyrofoil, but got bad results. The pressure vary a lot, beyond my imagination, even below zero at some spots. The only reason I can figure out is that the solver introduced the barotropic model, which allows the liquid to be compressible. Could anybody give me a hint that what can I do. Thanks a lot!
