The problem is an inviscid flow in a 2 m pipe, with 1 m/s and 0.5 m/s inlet and outlet initial velocity that produce a normal shock at x=1.5 m.
It will be so appreciated if someone introduce me the nearest OpenFOAM solver for the problem explained above.
You can use "sonicFoam" solver. It is a pressure based trans-sonic/supersonic transient compressible flow solver. For density based solver, you can use "rhoCentralFoam".
As a previous answer said, rhoCentralFoam density based solver should work for you. Although I believe you need to properly set the boundary conditions to obtain a shockwave. The boundary conditions you mentioned do not necessarily produce a shockwave.
Dear Sartaj Tanweer and Ahmed Osama Mohamed Elhassan Mahgoub
I am very thankful for your help.
Actually the boundary conditions I've mentioned above, are those in the Burgers' equation, and I've found nonLinearAdvectionDiffusionFoam solver and it works.
