I did the geometry in Blender and it has already the mesh and it's divided following the boundary conditions and I exported separated in stl. But now how do I make the simulation using openfoam in ubundu? Can someone help me please or indicate someone that could help.

Not sure.

Is your mesh a surface mesh or a volumetric mesh. Blender has a snappyHexMesh plugin for mesh generation, see https://github.com/tkeskita/snappyhexmesh_gui .

Do you have tutorial examples of dsmcFoam you can copy from? See e.g. https://develop.openfoam.com/Develop...thods/dsmcFoam

Thank you so much for the reply. It's a surface mesh. I will see that.
About the tutorials, I don't know how the files in that link.
I just started working in CFD software these week, so I'm kind of lost with Openfoam

All of us without exception start by being lost. No worries there.

Possibly it is beneficial to work through some tutorials.

Please get in touch with more specific queries. Good luck.
