Hi Everyone,

I am a new user of OpenFOAM and am aiming to use it as part of my Master thesis. I am modelling a floating object under the influence of waves (I will use the groovyBC boundary condition). However I am a little confused as to the difference between the interFoam solver and the interDyMFoam solver.

Could someone please explain the difference between these solvers and for what scenarios they are best used? Is interDyMFoam specifically for use with a dynamic mesh?

Thanks in advance,

Rose
