Performance prediction of an axial fan
 
Hi, everyone. I’m trying to setup and run a cfd model of an axial fan installed in a box using FreeCAD CfdOF software. Model seems fine and have a mesh generated successfully but don’t know how to define rotating zone for the fan. Can somebody give me guidance on how to define a rotating wall function within openfoam U folder of 0 directory. I can upload the file if needed. Thanks in advance.

Hi Rahmat, have you considered using a tool that provides a user interface on top of OF to make the setup more straightforward?
