CFD Simulation with OpenFOAM:
This section is dedicated to a practical approach to CFD. The following pages will show how to set up a simulation step-by-step in different cases, and all of them are made in OpenFOAM, an open-source software written in C++.
Before getting started, it is possible to install OpenFOAM here, remembering that it is made for Linux environment, like Ubuntu or Debian. If you are working on Windows, OpenFOAM is also available for the WSL Virtual Machine.
- Steady-State Simulations :
- Compressible:
- Subsonic
- Sonic-Supersonic
- Uncompressible:
- Subsonic
- Compressible:
- Transient Simulations
