Hello,

If you refer to the term mentioned in the state law in the compressible doc (though I'm not sure you do), you can define its law in the file cfther.f90. There, you'll find a routine called which is called in .

Hello, Regarding your question about the mass accumulation term, the section of code you cite from the 1.3.1 version has been moved to other routines deeper in the calling tree. To be more precised, the mass accumulation term is added directly to the diagonal part of the matrix in the C function cs_...

Hello Luciano, The gradient calculation method "iterative handling of non-orthogonalities" is more precised and ensures conservativity, while the "least square method over extended cell neighborhood" is more robust and should be used for example when the quality of the mesh is no...

Hello, you first should take a look at the Mach number, if M > 0.3, the compressible module should be used. If M < 0.3, but the density variations are such that \frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho} \ge 0.1 and the pressure variations are rather slow, you can consider using the low-Mach algorithm. Typically if y...

Hello Luciano, It's good that you managed to run your computation with a progressive increase of the pressure. Is 2.5 bar the pressure you impose as Ptot (I saw in your listing file that you were using the Ptot, Htot boundary condition) ? Note that this boundary condition is a "reservoir" ...
