Description of the problem

  • The previously implemented weak compressibility () was not working with heat transfer physic.

Description of the solution

  • Missing pressure field was added to scratch data.

How Has This Been Tested?

  • The new feature has been tested on an impinging jet case.
  • Two application tests were added to test this feature :
    • applications_tests/lethe-fluid/heat_transfer_weakly_compressible_flow.prm (.output)
    • applications_tests/lethe-fluid/heat_transfer_vof_weakly_compressible_flow.prm (.output)

Future changes

  • Pressure field should be added to other scratch data using the density. To generalize, all fields should be checked if required in all scratch data that calculates physical properties.

Comments

  • Other small typo corrections were made.

Very nice! The only thing I would change is the name of the dof handler. Maybe just use "fluid_dynamics_cell"?

Is fd meant to mean "fluid dynamics"? Maybe I would use a more meaningful name here.

I don't mind the fd here to be honest. All the fluid dynamics functions have fd, heat transfers have ht, etc. Right now this is a standard nomenclature in the code, so I would not change that unless we change it everywhere and that owuld be another PR in itself.

I don't think making a second reinit function is a good pattern here. It would be a better idea to reinit everything related to a single physics in a single function. Otherwise you will have multiple calls to fe_values.reinit and that's expensive.

Wait why is this a second FE_values reinit? This is very expensive as a call. It would be better to gather pressure when we gather the fluid dynamics instead of calling reinit when we need both...

It's better to move all the reinits to a single reinit which would be reinit_fluid_dynamics,. Otherwise the call to fe_values reinit will get prohibitively expensive..

You're right, I'll do so tomorrow!
I'll also check if it is more costly to add an if inside to get the pressure values or if the get_function_values() is not to bad. If it is not too bad (which I don't think is the case), I'll leave it without the if is that okay ?

Yup sounds good

Nice job Amish! Everything fine on my side.
