These tutorials are perfect for beginners. You can slowly take your first steps in OpenFOAM.

Go back to Collection by topic.

Basics

  • In this tutorial you will get a first hands-on glimpse into the workflow of CFD simulations with OpenFOAM. The pdf version can be found here.
  • The cavity case is one of the most basics tutorials. You will get a fast walkthrough with a good explanation about the mesh, running the case and postprocessing the results.
  • Here you will find a video on the very basics, history and philosophy of OpenFOAM.
  • Cavity - Revisited - Here you will be taken into the depth of an OpenFOAM case in order to understand all the important in- and outputs required for a CFD simulation in OpenFOAM.
  • Taylor Couette flow - In this short tutorial you will experience your first steady state simulation, where you can directly compare your results with experiments from literature.
  • T-junction - In this tutorial you will try a simple simulation with the your newly acquired knowledge on CFD in OpenFOAM.
  • In these videos you will hear a detailed introduction to OpenFOAM by Professor Hrvoje Jasak.
