Automatic Airfoil C-Grid Generation for OpenFOAM – Rev 1

Airfoil Mesh Generated with curiosityFluidsAirfoilMesher.py Here I will present something I've been experimenting with regarding a simplified workflow for meshing airfoils in OpenFOAM. If you're like me, (who knows if you are) I simulate a lot of airfoils. Partly because of my involvement in various UAV projects, partly through consulting projects, and also for testing … Continue reading Automatic Airfoil C-Grid Generation for OpenFOAM – Rev 1

The Ahmed Body

The Ahmed body is a geometric shape first proposed by Ahmed and Ramm in 1984. The shape provides a model to study geometric effects on the wakes of ground vehicles (like cars). Image highlights: In this post, I will use simpleFoam to simulate the Ahmed body at a Reynolds number of 10^6 using the k-omega … Continue reading The Ahmed Body
