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.

Meshing

  • blockMesh - In the following four tutorials you will find an introduction into meshing with the blockMesh utility: by Radl, by Nagy,by Nobrega et al.,by Bahram Haddadi
  • snappyHexMesh - This tutorial gives you an insight on how to create complex meshes within OpenFOAM and snappyHexMesh.
  • snappyHexMesh – Single region - Mesh a flange geometry and simulate heat transfer in it using scalarTransportFoam.
  • snappyHexMesh – Multi region - In this tutorial a geometry with more than one region is meshed using snappyHexMesh and simulated using chtMultiRegionFoam.
  • GMSH In this tutorial you will get a compact introduction into the work flow within the software GMSH for meshing.
