1.1 Introduction

centralFoam is a compressible flow solver based on the family of central/central-upwind schemes. Initially developed to deal with non-viscous flow (see first document) it has been recently extended to viscous (yet only incompressible and laminar) flow and to low-Mach and truly incompressible flows through time-preconditioning. Furthermore R-K time integration and some standard convergence acceleration tecniques have been implemented (see second document).

Work is still ongoing (in my freee-time) towards full viscous (incompressible & compressible, laminar & turbulent) capacity and to improve performance when computing incompressible flows.
