flowdyn documentation

flowdyn is a finite volume based toy project to test methods for cfd courses and some research preliminary and exploratory work.

to start

models

• convection: physical model for 1D scalar equation for convection (and maybe diffusion)
• burgers: physical model for 1D scalar non linear convection equation
• shallow water: physical model for 1D shallow water equations
• euler: physical model for compressible 1D inviscid equation, derived models with source terms to model nozzle are proposed.

numerical methods

• Finite Volume RHS discretization modeldisc
• time integrators

development

• structure of python libraries
• how to define a new model
• automatic testing
• future developments
  • 2D euler model
  • more implicit integration methods
  • non reflecting conditions
  • impedance wall conditions
