The saying goes "Who owns the mesh, owns the solution". With the help of these tutorials you will learn how to create meshes for arbitrary geometries in order to run your simulations.

Go back to Collection by topic.

Meshing

Overview

Geometry

  • Geometry creation - Here you will get a detailed introduction into two alternatives for the creation of geometries as inputs for a CFD project in OpenFOAM.
