Go back to Day 1.
First simulation in OpenFOAM
In these videos
you will learn about
- the basic case setup of OpenFOAM
- the initial values of your simulation
- the mesh (e.g. the boundaries)
- running the simulation of the flow in a 2D elbow case with three different meshes
- post processing
You will familiarize yourself with the terminal in Linux, where you will run all your simulations in OpenFOAM. You will also get a first idea on the work flow that you have to follow in order to run a successful simulation.
