Adding force term to Navier.S equaion(Implementing ImmersedBoundaryMethod to icoFoam)
 

I would like to implement Immersed boundary method in OpenFOAM by adding a force term to the Navier stokes equation .
Some extra steps should be added between the PISO algorithm steps of the icoFoam e.g adding a force term,interpolating velocity at specific interface etc.
Does anybody have any guide,idea,code etc. on how to implement any of these steps?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Dr. Tukovic had coded a type of immersed boundary methods into OpenFOAM. You may take a glance at it:

Thank you for your reply.
But the mentioned project, changes the boundary conditions to implement this method, and not adding a force term to the navier stokes equation.

Did anyone make progress here?

Daniel, I am looking to exactly do this. Were you able to implement it. Can you please elaborate the procedure?
