Henry Weller 583fc4aec0 driftFluxFoam::relativeVelocityModel: Updated dispersed-phase flow acceleration estimate
// Dispersed phase velocity
    // const volVectorField Ud(mixture_.U() + Udm_);

    // Use the mixture rather than the dispersed-phase velocity to approximate
    // the dispersed-phase acceleration to improve stability as only the mixture
    // momentum equation is coupled to continuity and pressure
    //
    // This approximation is valid only in the limit of small drift-velocity.
    // For large drift-velocity an Euler-Euler approach should be used in
    // which both the continuous and dispersed-phase momentum equations are
    // solved and coupled to the pressure.
    const volVectorField& Ud = mixture_.U();

    return g_ - (Ud & fvc::grad(Ud));
