Dear CFD Online members,
I try to simulate the compressible (transsonic/supersonic) air flow through a Laval nozzle with OpenFOAM. I also want to consult the arising shock waves. Which solvers matches well for this kind of application? I considered of using the rhoCentralFoam, rhoPimpleFoam or sonicFoam solver. But whats the difference between them? Thank You, Sebastian |
