2 What is OpenFOAM? Using OpenFOAM Practice - Cylinder in uniform flow Summary Content What is OpenFOAM? The Idea Overview of the libraries Using OpenFOAM Cavity tutorial overview Creating own simulations Practice - cylinder in uniform flow A look at the test case Summary Artur Lidtke Crash Course Introduction to OpenFOAM 2 / 32

3 What is OpenFOAM? Artur Lidtke Crash Course Introduction to OpenFOAM 3 / 32

4 The Idea In a nutshell Free, open source set of libraries used to solve differential equations Primarily focused on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), but may also be applied to other problems Uses finite volume approach to discretise and solve the governing equations Distributed by the OpenFOAM Foundation and developed by OpenCFD Ltd. Diclaimer: This series of presentations and tutorials is unofficial and is not supported or endorsed by the owners of OpenFOAM Artur Lidtke Crash Course Introduction to OpenFOAM 4 / 32

5 The Idea Open source Significant amount of development done by the users. See for instance: swak4foam pyfoam OpenFOAM Extend (e.g. OF-1.7.x) Individual contributions (solvers, utilities) uploaded by single users Written in C++ - efficient, versatile and well structured code Difficult to get started with development unless a proficient C++ user with experience Artur Lidtke Crash Course Introduction to OpenFOAM 5 / 32

6 The Idea Perfect? Little official support - training sessions organised but not free Not much coherent training materials - typically need to go through many presentations, reports and forum posts to find the answer to a particular problem User has full control over most of the parameters of any operation - overwhelming at the beginning Artur Lidtke Crash Course Introduction to OpenFOAM 6 / 32

7 The Idea Perfect? Little official support - training sessions organised but not free Not much coherent training materials - typically need to go through many presentations, reports and forum posts to find the answer to a particular problem User has full control over most of the parameters of any operation - overwhelming at the beginning BUT: Many tutorial cases prepared by the developers and users - demonstrate how different features of the code work (although without too much narration) Intensive unofficial support through the on-line user forum: Wiki pages dedicated to OpenFOAM: Artur Lidtke Crash Course Introduction to OpenFOAM 6 / 32

8 Overview of the libraries OpenFOAM capabilities See the official page for full info: What we are interested in: Incompressible, compressible and multiphase flows Reynold s Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS), Unsteady-RANS, and Large Eddy Simulation turbulence modelling Built-in meshing tools Easy to use (and modify) tools for extraction of data for post-processing Readilly available plugins to ParaView for flow visualisation Fully paralellised solvers (and some utilities) Artur Lidtke Crash Course Introduction to OpenFOAM 7 / 32

38 A look at the test case Oveview Cylinder in uniform flow - relevant to most engineering problems Very well covered in the literature, countless sets of validation data Very complex flow despite simple geometry Several regimes of the flow depending on the Reynolds number: laminar, sub-critical, transitional and fully turbulent For the purpose of this workshop, let s look at sub-ciritical regime - low-re but not low enough to be boring Artur Lidtke Crash Course Introduction to OpenFOAM 15 / 32
