- Reimplemented treatment of alpha1, phi and U in case of
nOuterCorrectors > 1 based on storePrevIter() to avoid cluttering the
solver with unnecessary fields in case of nOuterCorrectors = 1.
- Updated tutorial headers
- Added copyright note to isoAdvector src
- Removed outcommented code lines in interIsoFoam solver
- Removed all LTS from interIsoFoam since this is not currently supported
- Confirmed that discInConstantFlow gives identical results with N subCylces and time step N*dt
- Confirmed that this also holds when nOuterCorrectors > 1.
Community contribution from Johan Roenby, DHI
IsoAdvector is a geometric Volume-of-Fluid method for advection of a
sharp interface between two incompressible fluids. It works on both
structured and unstructured meshes with no requirements on cell shapes.
IsoAdvector is as an alternative choice for the interface compression
treatment with the MULES limiter implemented in the interFoam family
of solvers.
The isoAdvector concept and code was developed at DHI and was funded
by a Sapere Aude postdoc grant to Johan Roenby from The Danish Council
for Independent Research | Technology and Production Sciences (Grant-ID:
DFF - 1337-00118B - FTP).
Co-funding is also provided by the GTS grant to DHI from the Danish
Agency for Science, Technology and Innovation.
The ideas behind and performance of the isoAdvector scheme is
documented in:

interface advection. R. Soc. open sci. 3: 160405.
