Open Foam Installation steps
OpenFoam Case Structure
Utilize the blockMesh dict to build simple structured meshes (cubes, channels, cavities) by defining vertices, blocks, and boundaries, and adjust mesh resolution via scale and x, y, z block counts.
Learn to run an OpenFOAM case in parallel by decomposing with decomposePar, solving with mpirun, and reconstructing results with reconstructPar. Refine the mesh and view post-processed results in Paraview.
Use Python for post-processing of CFD data to automate data extraction and analysis. Create visualizations and reports with NumPy, pandas, matplotlib, and Paraview API, enabling batch processing and KPI comparisons.
Explore rotating square in OpenFOAM, using dynamic mesh, moving zones, and topo set to simulate mesh motion, boundary conditions, and solver control for incompressible flow.
Explore the square bump case in OpenFOAM to analyze boundary layer, flow separation, wake formation, drag, and mesh resolution near geometry on a flat plate.
Open Foam Basics and Advanced CFD along with Python and use of Artificial Intelligence.
Here you will learn from the very basics of Open Foam software, the Installation of the Open Foam Software, Running the Simulations in Parallel, Meshing using the Block mesh and Snap Mesh Techniques. You will learn your Simulation for the Lid Driven flow etc. You will also learn the basics of Python and post-processing using Python. At the End of the course you will find a Explanation and application of Artificial Intelligence.
Installing Open foam is a challenging and confusing task, However you will learn all the steps in this course in the Second Section.
The Third to fifth section gives the detailed study and example of Open Application for the detailed meshing using different techniques like Snap Meshing and Block Meshing etc.
The Sixth section explains about the Python software and the use of Python software for the Post-Processing part.
At the end of the course a brief discussion about the use of Artificial Intelligence is also provided.
In the End we will have a wrap up section concluding the course and recommendation for further study.
I wish all the readers a best of luck and I hope this course gives you a good start for your Journey in Open Foam as well Python and Artificial Intelligence.
