Realfluids

Participants : Héloise Beaugendre [Corresponding member] , Pietro Marco Congedo, Andrea Cortesi, Léo Nouveau, Quentin Viville.

RealFluids (developed in the BACCHUS $$team) solves compressible viscous turbulent flow equations, with real-gas effects and arbitrarily complex equations of state, with the most recent residual distribution schemes. It is currently used for simulating turbines in ORC optimization, and for the immersed boundary simulations for de-anti icing applications. It is being coupled to the Mutation library to be able to perform some CFD simulations of low-altitude re-entry flows.
