Multiphase (VOF) Simulation Project

Provided material

For this teaching session the following material will be provided:

geometry STL files
mesh predefined and fully commented dictionaries for snappyHexMesh
simulation case predefined and fully commented dictionaries for interFoam
commands list of commands to be executed
presentation pdf presentation describing the tutorial
Step-by-step simulation project

Detailed description

In this teaching session a simulation project is presented with a special focus on multiphase modeling (Volume-of-Fluid). The basic idea is to show how to conduct a simulation project from a predefined geometry until post-processing. After a small introduction to the physics involved in this tutorial as well as the implementation in OpenFOAM, a live step-by-step presentation of the mesh creation, the case setup, the simulation itself as well as the post-processing of the simulation results will be given (see figure below). A special focus is on the understanding of the needed steps in a typical workflow in OpenFOAM. For this reason dictionaries are fully commented. This way users can later come back and quickly and easily refresh the information gathered during the teaching session.

Prerequisites

This tutorial assumes basic knowledge in the handling of both OpenFOAM and Linux. A working installation of the versions indicated above is needed. A working version of Paraview is required.

Acknowledgments

The author thanks all those involved in the organisation of OFW12 and to all the contributors that will enrich this event.
