Hi,
I'm just looking at the rhoSonicFoam file. The phiv is defined as follows: surfaceScalarField phiv ( IOobject ( "phiv", runTime.timeName(), mesh, IOobject::NO_READ, IOobject::NO_WRITE ), fvc::interpolate(rhoU)/fvc::interpolate(rho) & mesh.Sf() ); But why not use "fvc::interpolate(U) & mesh.Sf()" instead of the last line there? I've tried it and it does not make much difference, but some values differ then. So I think there is a reason for taking the upper version, but I don't know which, since the latter should calculate faster. Is the first one more accurate? |
