Hi Henry,

You can find descriptions of the boundary conditions and their required user 
inputs within the User Manual.  You can either create a local copy yourself 
using Python’s sphinx package and the local documentation files contained 
within the doc directory of PyFR’s root directory, or a current copy of it can 
be found on PyFR's website at http://pyfr.org/user_guide.php 
<http://pyfr.org/user_guide.php>.

As Frank has already indicated the ac prefix is used to denote the artificial 
compressibility scheme used in PyFR’s incompressible solver.  The others 
describe boundary conditions for the compressible solver.  There are conditions 
for riemann characteristic invariant, no-slip adiabatic walls, no-slip 
isothermal walls, slip walls, subsonic inflow in which rho and velocity are 
prescribed, subsonic inflow in which total pressure and total temperature are 
prescribed, subsonic outflow in which static pressure is prescribed, supersonic 
inflow, and supersonic outflow.  Hope this helps.

Best Regards,



Zach Davis
