Apr 1, 2025In April 2025, delivered generalized buoyancy support in the Navier-Stokes solver of idaholab/moose and reinforced test reliability. Implemented the LinearFVMomentumBuoyancy kernel to compute buoyancy forces with gravity, density, and momentum parameters, integrating the RHS contribution into the momentum equations. Updated the test suite to exercise the new buoyancy treatment and refined the heated cavity scenario with a reference temperature and reduced mesh resolution to speed validation. These changes enhance physical fidelity of buoyancy-driven flows and reduce test cycle times, enabling faster iteration and more robust thermo-fluid simulations.
