Hi,

@harry: each face flux will provide you a contribution to the cell centered value, which can be re-constructed then based on the face values you defined. In other words you integrate the...

Hi, this is not a requirement. If you look at many solvers (incompressible codes for example), the momentum equation is solved directly, treating the pressure term as source term:

The full PDE for the momentum equation is solved once, with all the terms (well, bubbleFoam is an exception, since the momentum equation does not contain some of the terms, which are directly moved...

I will try to give you the basic idea in the case of a generic body force term F, so that your momentum equation reads:

(1) ddt(U) + div(UU) = div(tau) - grad(p)/rho + F

This equation can be...

Yes, bubbleFoam and twoPhaseEulerFoam implement an improved interpolation approach to treat gravity and drag. In OpenFOAM such a practise is implemented in some of the solvers (buoyant, multiphase,...
