pimpleControl: Added SIMPLErho option for running in SIMPLE mode
with large time-step/Courant number and relaxation. With this option the
density is updated from thermodynamics rather than continuity after the pressure
equation which is better behaved if pressure is relaxed and/or solved to a
loose relative tolerance. The need for this option is demonstrated in the
tutorials/compressible/rhoPimpleFoam/RAS/angledDuct tutorial which is unstable
without the option.
Now the interFoam and compressibleInterFoam families of solvers use the same
alphaEqn formulation and supporting all of the MULES options without
code-duplication.
The semi-implicit MULES support allows running with significantly larger
time-steps but this does reduce the interface sharpness.
Allows the specification of a reference height, for example the height
of the free-surface in a VoF simulation, which reduces the range of p_rgh.
hRef is a uniformDimensionedScalarField specified via the constant/hRef
file, equivalent to the way in which g is specified, so that it can be
looked-up from the database. For example see the constant/hRef file in
the DTCHull LTSInterFoam and interDyMFoam cases.
