Hi all,
I was wondering if there is a comprehensive list of all the FOAM executables out there. I can see all of the applications in the applications/bin directory. But I'm looking for a description, as well. Specifically I'm interested in fluid flow modeling. So this is my understanding: simpleFoam - for steady flow, both incompressible and compressible pisoFoam - for unsteady flow, both incompressible and compressible icoFoam - steady and unsteady incompressible flow Can all of the above also model turbulence? And what other possibilities are there? Thanks for your help, Madeleine. |

Hi,
The OpenCFD OpenFOAM site gives a brief description of all the solver. http://www.openfoam.com/features/standard-solvers.php There are also additional solvers in the OpenFOAM Extend branch (http://www.extend-project.de/). If you browse through the $FOAM_SOLVERS directory you can see all the solvers and a brief description is given in the main solver file. Philip |
