Density, \(\rho\) [kg/m\(^3\)]

\[\rho = \rho_0 \left( 1 - \beta (T - T_0) \right)\]

Entropy, \(S\) [J/kg/K ]

\[S = 0\]

Compressibility, \(\psi\) [s\(^2\)/m\(^2\)]

\[\psi = 0\]

Usage

The Boussinesq equation of state is specified as:

equationOfState
{
    rho0        <scalar>;
    T0          <scalar>;
    beta        <scalar>;
}

Where

  • rho0 : Reference density [kg/m\(^3\)]
  • T0 : Reference temperature [K]
  • beta : Thermal expansion coefficient [1/K]
