The course covers the use of OpenFOAM especially for the calculation of turbomachinery such as propellers, axial pumps or centrifugal pumps. In addition to the theoretical basics, best practice guidelines for the selection of numerical settings are taught. Another major topic is networking with open source tools. The knowledge is consolidated with examples.

The topics in detail: Introduction and modelling concepts Frames of reference: MRF / SRF Moving meshes Overview of features of OpenFOAM GGI/AMI interface BCs Solvers (SRF / MRF / *DyM*) Meshing Grid types, convergence properties Structured vs. unstructured meshes Strategies for meshing turbomachinery geometries with snappyHexMesh Simulation setup and boundary conditions Best practice setup for schemes and solver settings Setup for stationary simulations in the rotating reference system Setup for simulations with moving meshes Postprocessing of turbomachinery simulations OpenFOAM tools for extraction of results Paraview Concept Commonly used filters Advanced usage of Paraview: relative velocities, cylinder slices, python filter, … Advanced topics Cavitation Accompanying tutorials Ducted propeller Centrifugal pump Preparing, meshing and simulating in each case Reference results are available for comparison
