Heat Transfer solvers
Conjugate Heat Transfer [chtMultiRegionFoam]
Tutorial link: YouTube Video
Description: This tutorial video is on how to setup a case for conjugate heat transfer problem in OpenFOAM. Also how we can add a volumetric heat source and how to to post-process some data while running the simulation like, maximum and average temperature for each region.
Points covered:
- Copy a base case
- Understand folder structure
- Define solid-fluid regions
- Add volumetric heat-source
- Basic runtime post-processing
- Visualize in ParaView
Multiphase solvers
VoF method in multiphase flows [interFoam]
Tutorial link: YouTube Video
Description: In this tutorial, we will learn how to simulate a volume of fluid model based multiphase problem in OpenFOAM. The solver used here is interFoam and using that we will simulate air bubble rising problem in water column. We will also see, how to plot phase fraction plot using gnuPlot script and how to post-process results in paraview.
Points covered:
- VoF theory
- Copy a base case
- Understand folder structure
- Initialize phase fraction
- Define properties of each phase
- Basic runtime post-processing
- Visualize in ParaView
