Dear Mr. Nelson,
I was talking to you about my problem (solving flow around fluctuated fin).
You helped me, and now I am working on it.
I will appreciate if you answer my questions about pressure equation:
Note: my problem is time dependent
1-For air as fluid around the fin: I used pressure equation of 2d_cyl_piston.pde.
P: dt(P) + u*dx(P)+v*dy(P) + gamma*P*(dx(u)+dy(v)) = div(grad(P))
2- for water as fluid:
I used:
p: dt(p) +u*dx(p)+v*dy(p)= (p-p0+penalty*rho)*(dx(u)+dy(v))
(I simplified dt(dens) + div(dens*U) = 0 and replaced dens with pressure: dense=(p-p0)/penalty+dens0)
Am I right?
Regards,
Mehdi

"Right" means that the physical analysis has been correctly posed for the application at hand.
PDE Solutions cannot take on the responsibility of doing the analysis for customers' problems.

I notice that you have removed the "smoother" coefficient from the div() term in case 1. This is probably wrong.
