The Finite Volume Method: The FVM(Finite Volume Method) other than the FDM(Finite Difference Method) is a Method we use to discretise the Governing Equations (Partial Differential Equations) into Algebraic Equations and to solve these Equations all over the Fluid Domain and thus solve the Fluid Flow. FDM and FVM discretise…

Project 1- Creating your own openFOAM solver
Aim: Modifying a existing solver to solve a scalar transport Equation for a scalar quantity "s". Summary: We modify the icoFoam solver which originally solves the Equation for transient incompressible flow using PISO algorithm, a pressure-velocity coupling algorithm to give us the variation of Pressure and Velocity…
