Finite difference method FDM

  1. The initial velocity field is known and divergence free
  2. Coordinates of a set of marker particles is known - showing which regions are fluid and which are not fluid
  3. Pressure field is calculated so that the rate of change of the divergence of velocity is zero, which requires the solution of Poisson’s Equation - which can be done via an SOR method
  4. Two components of acceleration are calculated
  5. Marker particles move according to the velocity field
  6. Adjustments are made for passage of marker particles across cell boundaries - i.e. the velocity changes when a cell is emptied and filled with fluid

The marker particles are not like the particle-in-cell method, i.e. the marker particles do not participate in the calculation, where as in the particle-in-cell method, they do.
