Single-Phase Flow Interfaces
There are several fluid flow physics interfaces available as listed in The CFD Module Physics Interface Guide. This chapter describes the physics interfaces found under the Fluid Flow>Single-Phase Flow branch (). The section Modeling Single-Phase Flow helps to choose the best physics interface to start with.
In this chapter:
•
The Creeping Flow, Laminar Flow, Turbulent Flow, and Large Eddy Simulation Interfaces
•
The Rotating Machinery, Laminar and Turbulent Flow Interfaces
•
Theory for the Single-Phase Flow Interfaces
•
Theory for the Turbulent Flow Interfaces
•
Theory for the Large Eddy Simulation Interfaces
•
Theory for the Rotating Machinery Interfaces
•
The Wall Distance Interface is also available and described in the COMSOL Multiphysics Reference Manual including the theory and how it relates to fluid flow.
