Part 1: Wing Motion Simulation in OpenFoam - snappyHexMesh

[@JousefM]

Very nice video and speed Asmaa, keep up the good work :)

[@dsbupadrasta2385]

Thank you ma'am, it really informative. Your tutorials are really helpful.

[@qureshimzi3049]

Dear sister your video tutorials are very informative, especially for beginners. I will request you to please make a video tutorial of OpenFOAM adjointShapeOptimization solver. I want to use this for airfoil, but i don’t know the basic setting of this solver. Thanks

thank's for the video, i have a question about snappyHexMesh,
it's possible to generate a mesh for free surface like a ship or wing between air/fluid.

[@CFDAsmaaHadane]

The snappyHexMesh allows you to generate your domain whether it's a free surface or not. While for free streams it's the Volume of fluid VOF that models that kind of problems, check the solver interFoam for more details, and have a look at the tutorial multiphase/interFoam/RAS/DTCHullMoving , it concerns a ship modeling.

Which airfoil is used for the analysis can you tell me mam?

[@h_l9947]

Thank you very much this is very clear and helpful

[@swchoi3755]

Very useful lecture (9/10 score lecture).. One minor request is to provide as the input files that you showed in the video. That would help us to follow/practice your lecture.

[@CFDAsmaaHadane]

Thanks, the test case is available in OpenFOAM tutorials.

@@CFDAsmaaHadane Hello, is there a pdf document of the tutorial?

[@marcusdavid3674]

Thanks, but we need advanced meshing processing.

[@sefasahin6038]

Thank you. It is so enlightening :)

[@ramgupta7697]

Hi, I am trying to generate unstructured triangular mesh. Can you suggest some software for that?
Thanks a lot.
Regards

thank you!

Hey Asmaa! I'm getting the following error when I run snappyHexMesh: --> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
Cannot find triSurfaceMesh starting from Can you help me resolve it? Thanks :)

[@StrikerRaiiiie]

did you put the stl file in the folder triSurface ?

[@philnassaux5818]

I noticed that the stl file in the tutorial folder /constant/triSurface is compressed - wing_5degrees.obj.gz
you'll need to extract it using the following command to get the uncompressed file "wing_5degrees.obj":
gzip -d wing_5degrees.obj.gz
