PierreLCV Member Pierre LECHEVALIER Join Date: Mar 2023 Posts: 31 Rep Power: 3	Hello, I would like to perform a very simple simulation with water circulating in a straight tube (200mm long and 15mm diameter) with heating walls. Knowing that I am using water circulating at "low" velocity (<20 m/s), I would like to use an incompressible solver. "incompressibleFluid" is great but do not seems to be able to consider heat transfer in native form (or I am wrong ?). That's why I use "fluid" which is dedicated to heat transfer situation but this is a compressible solver... Hence my question, does anyone know if there is an incompressible solver to solve also the energy equation in OpenFoam? Thank you for your help, Best regards, Pierre
