[Question #691748]: Yade Flow engine

https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/691748

Hello,

I have a general question about the flow engine in Yade. I would like to know how the fluid velocity (for example: averageVelocity() function) is calculated? I have read the model documentation in [1] and [2] and similar papers but I couldn't understand how the fluid velocity is obtained numerically. 

Also, is the average velocity reported from using averageVelocity() is the same as (u-v) in equation 19 in [2]? 


Thank you,
Othman
