This is an experimental feature demonstrating the potential of MULES to
create bounded solution which are 2nd-order in time AND space.
Crank-Nicolson may be selected on U and/or alpha but will only be fully
2nd-order if used on both within the PIMPLE-loop to converge the
interaction between the flux and phase-fraction. Note also that
Crank-Nicolson may not be used with sub-cycling but all the features of
semi-implicit MULES are available in particular MULESCorr and
alphaApplyPrevCorr.
Examples of ddt specification:
ddtSchemes
{
default Euler;
}
ddtSchemes
{
default CrankNicolson 0.9;
}
ddtSchemes
{
default none;
ddt(alpha) CrankNicolson 0.9;
ddt(rho,U) CrankNicolson 0.9;
}
ddtSchemes
{
default none;
ddt(alpha) Euler;
ddt(rho,U) CrankNicolson 0.9;
}
ddtSchemes
{
default none;
ddt(alpha) CrankNicolson 0.9;
ddt(rho,U) Euler;
}
In these examples a small amount of off-centering in used to stabilize
the Crank-Nicolson scheme. Also the specification for alpha1 is via the
generic phase-fraction name to ensure in multiphase solvers (when
Crank-Nicolson support is added) the scheme is identical for all phase
fractions.

About OpenFOAM
OpenFOAM is a free, open source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package released by the OpenFOAM Foundation. It has a large user base across most areas of engineering and science, from both commercial and academic organisations. OpenFOAM has an extensive range of features to solve anything from complex fluid flows involving chemical reactions, turbulence and heat transfer, to solid dynamics and electromagnetics.
