Description
QGDsolver is OpenFOAM framework for simulation of fluid flows using regularized equations approach. It contains library for approximation of partial derivatives at face centers of unstructured grids and a set of OpenFOAM solvers:

1. QGDFoam - solver for compressible viscous perfect gas flows in a wide Mach number range - from 0 to infinity

2. QHDFoam - solver for incompressible viscous fluid flows with buoyancy force

3. particlesQGDFOam - solver for compressible viscous perfect gas flows in a wide Mach number range with particles - from 0 to infinity

4. particlesQHDFoam - solver for incompressible viscous fluid flows with buoyancy force with particles

5. SRFQHDFoam - solver for incompressible viscous fluid flows in rotating frame of reference with buoyancy force

6. QHDDyMFoam - solver for incompressible viscous fluid flows in domains with deforming boundary and with buoyancy force

7. interQHDFoam - solver for incompressible 2-phase viscous fluid flows with buoyancy force and surface tension

8. reactingLagrangianQGDFoam - solver for reacting multicomponent compressible viscous perfect gas flows in a wide Mach number range with particles - from 0 to infinity

9. scalarTransportQHDFoam - solver for scalar transport equation to demonstrate the very basics of QGD/QHD equations principles

Generally speaking, QGD/QHD framework offers and alternative to PISO/SIMPLE and Riemann-solvers approach to simulate various flow phenomena on unstructured grids. And sometime it could be superior comparing to more traditional techniques.
