More Info:
Here is a computational fluid dynamics simulation I ran not too long ago... This was when I was simply learning the ins and outs of OpenFoam and in being so, this was just a preset simulation that I learned how to run... Nonetheless, it served as a great learning experience, and I think that it looks pretty cool...
Graph / Results
IcoFoam primarily uses the PISO algorithm (Pressure-Implicit with Splitting of Operators) to solve the continuity equation... The IcoFoam also uses the momentum equation:
IcoFoam
PISO Equation: ∇∙u=0
Momentum Equation: (∂/∂t)∙(u)+∇∙(u⊗u)−∇∙(ν∇u)=−∇p
