This is not a complete tutorial... You have edited some of the files in system and you have not shown what you have done. blockMeshDict for example has "upperWall", "lowerWall" and "frontAndBack", whereas our geometry has just wall. I have no idea what values to put in the matrices for wall. Running this setup throws errors. So this is another frustrating, incomplete OpenFOAM tutorial.... I get this error: "--> FOAM Warning : From void Foam::polyBoundaryMesh::calcGroupIDs() const in file meshes/polyMesh/polyBoundaryMesh/polyBoundaryMesh.C at line 100 Removed group 'wall' which clashes with patch 2 of the same name. --> FOAM Warning : From Foam::labelHashSet Foam::polyBoundaryMesh::patchSet(const Foam::UList&, bool, bool) const in file meshes/polyMesh/polyBoundaryMesh/polyBoundaryMesh.C at line 915 Cannot find any patch or group names matching lowerWall --> FOAM Warning : From Foam::labelHashSet Foam::polyBoundaryMesh::patchSet(const Foam::UList&, bool, bool) const in file meshes/polyMesh/polyBoundaryMesh/polyBoundaryMesh.C at line 921 Cannot find any patch names matching lowerWall Sampled surface: nearWall -> vtk sampledPatchInternalField: nearWall : patches:1(lowerWall)" EDIT: seems to run now. The only change I made was making sure that deltaT = 0.0001. However, my point stands with the blockMeshDict file. Why does it still run even though upper/lower/front and back are mentioned there? And if I want to only mention "wall", how do I find the values to put in the matrix?

I know this is a bit late and you probably would have figured it out already. But for those who are curious about it, Openfoam just searches for the boundary condition for the patches in constant/polymesh/boundary and it does not matter if there are boundary conditions for non existent patches in your files.

Oh wow! I just started learning OpenFOAM two weeks ago and I'm in the exact position you described. Its really difficult to find actually helpful (beginner focussed) content out there :(. Thanks for making this! :) I did have a question if you have the time. I'm trying to simulate airflow around an air rifle pellet (basically a bullet) as if in a wind tunnel. How do I best go about setting up the original case folder? I could indeed just copy a folder like the motorBike tutorial, but every file there already seems customized to fit the motorbike.obj model. Is there a more basic way to create a case folder that works for general models or does that require extensive knowledge beyond a beginners capacity?
@interfluo6420
@interfluo6420 3 жыл бұрын
Hey, thanks for the comment! The general procedure I follow is first defining the flow type and solver I am looking to use. In the case of an air rifle pellet I would think that you most likely want to use a solver for a compressible flow. I would then find the example with the most similar boundary conditions to the ones I am trying to simulate. In the case you explained I would likely use: tutorials/compressible/sonicFoam/RAS/nacaAirfoil directory. Hope this helps

Good Tutorial. A few comments. You missed where to set the model in the constant folder. I know it's LES, but say someone wants to go with a RAS KOmegaSST model instead. Maybe it's out of the scope of the tutorial. Also, it would be helpful to go over the boundary conditions. For instance, why is there an inletOutlet condition on the outlet of U and what is a turbulent inlet condition. A lot of tutorials miss explaining what boundary conditions are and OpenFOAM is very sensitive to them. The angle you're taking in your tutorials is great and needed, thank you and keep it up.

Hi. Thank you for your tutorial. Unfortunately m, I was disappointedat. I mean the content of the video and its description are not identical: No focus on how to setup the case, no focus on the turbulence model, why to choose that model, how to set its coefficients, how to set the boundary/initial conditions in 0 folder. The main focus was only on mesh generation which is relatively easy compared to case preparation and proper setup itself.

So I know that EOF errors occur when the program unexpectedly encounters the end of the file. This is likely cause by a missing parenthesis or semi colon somewhere in that dictionary. Unfortunately I don't know of any easy way of doing this besides checking all of the files manually, the problem shouldn't be in the files I uploaded unless their was an error when you downloaded them, it appear to be in your db/dictionary/entry/entryIO.C at line 165.

The only two thing I can think of is to make sure your mesh file is in the correct location (you should have your folder containing 0, system, constants, and .msh file); the other thing is to make sure that you export the mesh in the correct format (I show how in the video). If you watch some of my newer videos I go a bit more into depth on how to set up the 0 folder, but I honestly haven't done a full length tutorial yet because it changes a lot depending on solver and turbulence model used. I would suggest using: www.fluidmechanics101.com/pages/tools.html . I am slowly developing a calculator myself and you will be able to find it here: github.com/Interfluo/CFD-tools

thank you it is interesting.. I just started learning OpenFOAM just now I am learning to apply aerodynamic effect simulation on buses...and i do not have the software please send me the app software

I can't get Ansys to generate a mesh like yours. It creates a mesh on the surface and not on the inside of whenever I try to get it generate my mesh. No matter what I do Ansys just creates a mesh that is on the outside of my geometry, so it never works.

hmm, I have never had this issue. the only suggestions I can think of are to: 1.) try switching to wireframe view, maybe you are making the internal mesh but can't see it 2.) make sure that you are hitting "generate mesh" and not "generate surface mesh" 3.) try a different meshing software, my latest video cover cfmesh for instance (kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2OxXptmmsSGo68) that is the best I can do without seeing what is going on, hope it helps!

Thanks a lot for your efforts 🌹 Just wonder when did you modified the Boundary Conditions of the case, I think you have just opened the files, but it would much helpful if you change something then show that change in post processing. Also you mentioned Courant number, but didn’t say what to do with it. Thank you very much again :)

Thanks for the comment! In some of my later videos I go over these things more in depth. As a matter of fact, I have a video coming in a few days where I will make sure to go more in depth into the turbulence model, boundary conditions, etc…

you had me till you mentioned Ansys. thought you were gonna use open-source software like gmsh to create the geometry. not everyone has/will have ansys after uni.

Making the tutorial depend on ANSYS Modeler kind of defeats the purpose. If we had ANSYS then we would probably not be worried about OpenFOAM.

Hmmm... I'm planning on learning CFD and I found OpenFOAM. But after watching this, I don't think it's a software for beginners... Do you happen to have any recommendation for newbies? I've seen my friend use Ansys but it seems just as complicated... P.S.: I have little to no experience with linux or whatever Ubuntu is....

It does little good to post a tutorial for Open Source software, and then use very expensive CAD tools to make the model.

If you have an ANSYS FLUENT license, why would you use OpenFOAM?! 🤔 please create a tutorial to use Gmsh for geometry and mesh generation.

There has to be something a little bit more user-friendly than this. This seems like trash. The fact that you have to go from the GUI to the command line prompt is redundant.
