FEM EquationFlow/it

Da fare

For info about the math of the equation, see the Elmer models manual, section Navier-Stokes Equations.

Usage

 * 1) After adding an Elmer solver as described here, select it in the tree view.
 * 2) Now either use the toolbar button [[Image:FEM_EquationFlow.svg|24px]] or the menu.
 * 3) Change the equation's solver settings or the general solver settings if necessary.

Solver Settings
For the general solver settings, see the Elmer solver settings.

The flow equation provides these special settings:

Constraint Information
The electrostatic equation takes the following constraints into account if they are set:


 * [[Image:FEM_ConstraintFlowVelocity.svg|32px]] Constraint flow velocity
 * [[Image:FEM_ConstraintInitialFlowVelocity.svg|32px]] Constraint initial flow velocity
 * [[Image:FEM_ConstraintInitialPressure.svg|32px]] Constraint initial pressure
 * [[Image:FEM_ConstraintPressure.svg|32px]] Constraint pressure

Note
Except for calculations in 2D, for all above constraints it is important that they act on a face or body. Constraints for 3D set to lines or vertices are not recognized by the Elmer solver.
