Hello everyone
My name is Mangesh and I'm new to both CFD and OpenFOAM. I have tried all the tutorials that OpenFOAM has to offer but that's all the knowledge I have about working on the platform. Currently, I am working on a project that requires me to simulate a fluid-structure interaction phenomenon on a beam executing a fixed trajectory in a moving fluid. I tried simulating this on COMSOL but the fsi module there always reported an error whenever I tried defining a motion to the beam. I installed OpenFOAM, and upon realizing that there is no solver on 2.3.0 for this purpose, installed the foam-extend-3.0 platform. I tried to access the tutorial for icoFsiElasticNonLinULSolidFoam solver under solidMechanics but it seems that the blockMeshDict file in the Hron-Turek tutorial is missing. I tried to make sense of the data flow through the solver, but that didn't get me anywhere. So now I turn to you good people to help me understand this solver so that I may tweak it as necessary and use it for my project. I thank you all in advance. |
