dynamic meshes on OpenFOAM

foroutan_t · December 2, 2015, 07:34

dear all
I want to model a cubical box in OpenFOAM that 3 of its boundary faces are moving by time, and no flow of fluid in this volume is permitted, I appreciate if some body could help me or introduce me some references about dynamic meshes on OpenFOAM.
Regards.

Dear Foroutan,

in the tutorial cases you will find appropriated tutorial cases. Depending on your problem (one phase _> incompressible or compressible, multiphase etc.) you get some tutorials for each solver. For the mesh motion you have to choose a valid mesh motion library in the dynamicMeshDict and modify it to your problem or if there is still no lib for your problem, you have to code it yourself.
