Hi all,

In simpleFoam.C, for example,
I do not understand :

1/ What "adjustPhi(phi,U,p)" does?
Can somebody summarize me quickly what it's done?

2/ According to the simple algo, I understand that the momentum equation is solved first, by guessing p. But when the boundary conditions for U are involved ?
And
i/ What does "p.boundaryField().updateCoeffs();"mean?
ii/ Or "U.correctBoundaryConditions();"?

Can somebody tell me where I have to look harder?

Thanks in advance,

Lam
