Hi all,
Could somebody please confirm to a confused newbie that v* should be
v** in Eq. 2.40 and 2.48 of documentation (correction step) ?
It seems to make more sense to me and is what I understand from my
deciphering of the code.
Also in momentum_correction_step.F:
C | The arrays used for time stepping are cycled.
C | Momentum:
C | V(n) = Gv(n) - dt * grad Eta
C |
C |part1: update U,V
C | U*,V* (contained in gU,gV) have the surface
C | pressure gradient term added and the result stored
C | in U,V (contained in uVel, vVel)
but further down:
C- Update velocity fields: V(n) = V** - dt * grad Eta
Thanks
aurelien
