idFireSmoke_Dynamics_Conservation_Overview

The conservation process gives the fluid its characteristic swirling motion. It transforms straight-line movement of the fluid into swirling vortices. The higher the strength of the conservation, the farther the motion forces will be propagated throughout the container, so a movement in one point will cause the fluid to start moving at a distance too. The conservation directs smoke and fire into realistic shapes and helps liquids to support their own weight when at rest, and to fill up a volume they are poured into.

Fluid Transport (Advection)

...

The advection process moves the fluid along its velocity inside the grid. A problem of all grid-based simulators is that moving the content of one cell to a new place in the grid will blur the result when the destination lies between cells (and it usually does), thus losing the fine details with each new frame. Phoenix FD has a number of advection methods that battle this problem in different ways, each one with its own pros and cons depending on the situation.
