Go back to "3 weeks" series.

First simulation
In this tutorial you will get a first hangs-on glimpse into the workflow of CFD simulations with OpenFOAM. The following topics will be covered:
- basic case setup
- initial values
- mesh
- simulation (2D elbow case with three meshes)
- postprocessing
Cavity tutorial
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 get a fast walkthrough with a good explanation about
- the mesh
- running the case
- postprocessing the results.
OpenFOAM basics
Here you will find a video on the very basics of OpenFOAM. You will hear about
- OpenFOAM and what it is good for
- the history and philosophy behind it
- the basics and the structure.
blockMesh 1
In this first tutorial video you will try out the OpenFOAM internal utility blockMesh in order to create a simple mesh for a simulation.
blockMesh 2
In this second tutorial video you will continue the OpenFOAM basics from above.
blockMesh 3
Here you will find a summary on the basics of meshing with blockMesh.
