First simulation

In this tutorial you will get a first hangs-on glimpse into the workflow of CFD simulations with OpenFOAM.

This is one of the most basics tutorials. You will revisit this example, so it is a good idea to try it out now.

Here you will find a video on the basics of OpenFOAM.

In this first tutorial video you will try out the OpenFOAM internal utility blockMesh in order to create a simple mesh for a simulation.

In this second tutorial video you will continue the OpenFOAM basics from above.

Here you will find a summary on the basics of meshing with blockMesh.
