Othman Sh is still having a problem:
Hi Robert,

I was trying to understand the equations in the source code and link
that to the documentation in eq. 19 in [1] but it wasn't clear to me.

" the total flowrate crossing the cell boundary" means that flow rate
would have a unit of volume/time, so how is it that dividing this by the
cell volume would give a velocity in distance/time unit?

Also, line 123 in the source code [2] reads the following:

cell->info().averageVelocity() = cell->info().averageVelocity() +
(facetFlowRate) * (posAvFacet - CGAL::ORIGIN);

I couldn't understand this part: "(facetFlowRate) * (posAvFacet -
CGAL::ORIGIN);", what is posAvFacet?

Thanks for your help,

Best,
Othman
