Contributions

We highly appreciate the open source development for CFD. We would like to share our developments with the OpenFOAM® community. Here you can find projects we initiated ourselves or from our customers who consented in publishing their development at this side. More example cases and OpenFOAM® developments will follow soon.

CastNet feature overview: GUI, OpenFOAM®, CalculiX

Video 1: Base workflow from CAD import/case setup via job monitoring to post-processing with hybrid meshing for a flow distributor

Video 2: Cost-reduction by CFD-optimisation study: Flow into a chimney with CastNet’s  CAD model replacements capabilities for Parasolod models

Video 3: Setup of a conjugate heat transfer case. Handling of CAD assemblies in CastNet with demonstration of additional meshing feature.

Video 4: FEA analysis (CalculiX ): Thermal stress analysis based on CHT case results

Video 5: Pump modeling for external meshing with snappyHexMesh as optional meshing approach. Model setup without building the fluid domain in the CAD system
