Introduction to Open. FOAM A tutorial on how to use dynamic mesh solver Ico. Dy. MFoam Performed by: Pirooz Moradnia Spring 2008, Göteborg-Sweden

Table of Contents - Basics of Ico. Dy. MFoam - Mesh manipulation approaches - Mesh manipulation models - Point motion solvers - Diffusivity models - A few examples

Basics of Ico. Dy. MFoam - Transient solver - Incompressible-Laminar flow - Newtonian fluids - Moving mesh

Mesh manipulation approaches - Fixed mesh topology; i. e. spacing between the nodes changes (Automatic approach in Ico. Dy. MFoam) - Variable mesh topology; with help of: - boundary attachment or detachment - Layer addition or removal -Sliding interfaces

Mesh manipulation models - dynamic. Fv. Mesh library models - static. Fv. Mesh - dynamic. Motion. Solver. Fv. Mesh - dynamic. Ink. Jet. Fv. Mesh (no change in mesh) (solving for the cell motion equations) (harmonic mesh motion) - topo. Changer. Fv. Mesh library models - linear. Valve. Fv. Mesh - linear. Valve. Layers. Fv. Mesh - mixer. Fv. Mesh - moving. Cone. Topo. Fv. Mesh (sliding interface) (sliding interface with layer addition and removal) (sliding interface in cylindrical coordinates) (layer addition and removal)

Point motion solvers - displacement. Laplacian - solving for the laplacian of the diffusivity and cell displacement - velocity. Laplacian - solving for the laplacian of the diffusivity and cell velocity - SBRStress - a displacement solver, taking care of Solid Body Rotation

Diffusivity models - quality-based methods - uniform - directional - motion directional - inverse. Distance - distance-based methods - linear - quadratic - exponential

A few examples
