Fluidity

Equation of state modification

Asked by Xavier

Hi,
It looks like there are three kinds of implemented EoS: linear, Pade and stiffened gas. Is there a way to add a new one based on a table or polynomial without changing source files (Equation_of_State.F90, .rnc and others probably) ?

Hi Xavier,

There's no direct way, no. However, there is a workaround. Under linear,
there is a option to use any scalar field. You can therefore construct a
python diagnostic scalar field using any other scalar fields and python
to whichever equation you wish and then use that with the linear
equation of state.

I've not tried this, but let us know how you get on.

Kind regards,

Jon
