I've dabbled a bit with OpenFOAM in the past and I'd like to use it seriously in future. My mathematical background is deficient but my C++ background should be adequate, I think.

I am seeking recommendations for books to be used for self-study that will help me use OpenFOAM to simulate internal flows in machinery with periodically varying geometry.

I have already ordered Mary L. Boas's (MSRIP) 3rd edition "Mathematical Methods in the Physical Sciences" in order to try to remedy my mathematical inexperience. (Also the relevant Schaum's book.)

I see a book on Amazon called simply OpenFOAM which has no reviews - it seems to be an edited compilation of what is available for free on the net.

Do any of you have recommendations for books that will help me?
