Go back to Day 1.

blockMesh with a more complicated case

pressure distribution

In this video you will get a detailed introduction into the dictionary describing the input of blockMesh. This time we will use a more detailed geometry of the forwardStep. You will learn about

  • scaling the mesh
  • setting the vertices
  • setting volumes (blocks)
  • setting edges
  • boundaries
  • grading

We will also run and post process the case, however the focus is on the meshing part of a CFD project.

For older versions of OpenFOAM the blockMeshDict file is located in constant/polyMesh, for newer versions the file is located in system.
