Simulation results are good and nice. However, you will have to visualize to data you get out of a simulation in OpenFOAM. These tutorials will explain, how to evaluate simulation results in OpenFOAM.

Post-processing

  • swak4Foam and pyFoam - This tutorial provides material on how to use swak4Foam and pyFoam to postprocess data.
  • Detailed information on Paraview - In this tutorial you will get a deep understanding on the scientific postprocessing and visualization of results in Paraview.
  • Training material of the NanoSim project - For Lagrangian Data Visualization using ParaView checkout this tutorial. Note, this page also contains instructions to load data from the popular particle dynamics code LAMMPS/LIGGGHTS. Also, the PVReader Plugin, the LIGGGHTS reader plugin, as well as how to use math-text in Paraview annotations is provided.
  • Sampling - Simulate the flow along a shock tube for 0.007 s and use OpenFOAM sampling utility for extracting the data along a line during the simulation and after the simulation.
