Flow Solver
Contains flow solver related guides, such as the reference and API guides.
Flow solver flowcharts
This section consists of flowcharts that illustrate the methodology of the flow solver when you run a simple steady-state or transient simulation, and does not cover all features and situations. It also highlights how the flow solver is coupled to the thermal solver for a simple steady-state or transient coupled thermal-flow simulation.

  - Linearization and convergence
    The flow solver uses linearization and convergence to solve for pressure, velocity, enthalpy, and other variables. It is important to understand the time versus non-linear convergence loops, and the equations that are solved.
