Few notes on this training

  • This training provides a general introduction to OpenFOAM.
  • After this OpenFOAM training your skills will be at that level, to allow you to develop your OpenFOAM projects on your own.
  • This is a very important milestone in learning OpenFOAM: to know what to do next at every time.
  • This training shows rather principles than a real project work.
  • All the training is repeatable any time.
  • Learn by doing!
  • Start with very simple cases.
  • Do as many tutorials as possible. That is the most effective way of learning.
  • Later work with source code. Source code is the best documentation.
  • At least basic knowledge of CFD or Fluid Dynamics is needed.
  • No prior knowledge of C++ is needed. And also this is not course on C++.
  • No prior knowledge of Linux is needed. And also this is not course on Linux.
  • No prior knowledge of Finite Volume Method or numerical methods is needed. And also this is not course on Finite Volume Method or numerical methods.

Hub and shroud patches

Knowledge of hub and shroud profile is crucial for the transformation algorithm, because the aim of the transformation is to flatten both these patches. This selection box enables user to select both patches.

Turbo Blade Post

Turbo Blade Post is a product of company CFD Support s.r.o. (www.cfdsupport.com). It was especially created to enable an effective graphical postprocessing of rotating machinery – both radial and axial machines such as pumps, hydro turbines, compressors, turbochargers, propellers and many more. Turbo Blade Post is a set of following plugins (filters) for ParaView http://www.paraview.org/(www.paraview.org):
  • Turbo Unwrap – for visualization of the blade-to-blade view or 2D plots around the blades.
  • Meridional Average – for evaluation and visualization of the meridional averages in the blade passage.
More information about Turbo Blade Post can be found in the chapter [*] or on CFD Support web site: https://www.cfdsupport.com/turbo-blade-post.htmlhttps://www.cfdsupport.com/turbo-blade-post.html.
