Table 4.

Principles and applicability of fluent solvers.

Solver categories Methods Principles Applicability
Segregated SIMPLE Instead of solving the N-S equation directly, the momentum equation is modified by pressure. Suitable for solving the compressible flow
SIMPLEC Suitable for solving the incompressible flow
PISO
Couple Coupled Simultaneously solving the N-S equations directly. Suitable for solving the compressible flow
