SIMPLE algorithm image

FlyBob91 · September 9, 2017, 10:52

Hello to all,
does anyone know where i can find a schematic image of the SIMPLE algorithm implemented in OpenFOAM?

The only image i've found is this one, but the quality is poor.

Thanks for help

I guess you need it for your thesis, a paper or something like that, right? What about, doing it yourself?

I recommend to harness the power of LaTeX and TikZ, e.g. http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/android/

Thank you both,
I think i will do as you suggested.

Thanks you Gerhard for the link
