Super video. Ich hatte mich bisher noch gar nicht mit einer Foam-GUI befasst. Sollte aber ein tolles Tool sein um "Anfängern" und Leuten, die an GUI-Programme gewöhnt sind, den Einstieg zu erleichtern. Übrigens: mit den neueren Blender Varianten kann man alle Objekte auf einmal als *stls exportieren lassen indem man bei "batch mode" -> object wählt. Wenn man beim exportieren den Namen weglässt, dann übernimmt er einfach den Namen des Objekts und macht daraus "objektName.stl" :) Great video. I hadn't looked into foam-GUIs yet, but I think they should really help "beginners" and anyone who makes the transition from other GUI based applications. In addition: The newer Blender versions allow to export all objects in separate *stls via ONE-click by choosing "object" as batch mode when exporting the *stl. Furthermore, when you leave the name field of the exported file empty, it will automatically create the name "object_name".stl

Hey Fee, thanks for your great feedback and your tip. The export function in blender can be handy. However, industrial assemblies sometimes come with "nuts and bolts" which we usually simplicity in a simulation. It can happen that you are facing huge number of STL parts when exporting using the batch mode. I did this recently ;-)

Thanks for the video. Lot of useful info.

Dear Friend, is possible include in helyx os a momentum source for a vehiculator fan? put the cylinder and set up the momentum source? :)

Thank you very much EngineerDo for your very clear and explanatory videos. I would like to know if Seimens NX can be used for both CAD modeling and meshing?

@engineerdo6568

Well I guess you can use NX for both. Quality of the surface mesh could be an issue but I have no experience with NX

Danke für das Tutorial. Kann ich damit auch den Verguss von Resin bei Unterdruck simulieren? Also höhere Viskosität, Newton und Luft bei Unterdruck.

Hallo Daniel, vielen Dank für deine Frage. Zweiphasensimulationen sind möglich. Die Viskosität lässt sich beliebig einstellen. Newtonsche und nicht newtonsche Fluide lassen sich auch simulieren. Luftblasen sind meiner Meinung nach auch möglich.

Hi Engineerdo, I'm using OpenFOAM-v2112 and recently I download Helyx-OS-2.4.0-Linux. Can you make a quick tutorial on how to install helix and run OpenFOAM on it? Thanks! your videos are very helpful. Love it!

Hey Dian, try to look into the error message. Usually you will find a hint what is actually wrong

Hi! I got this message: --> FOAM FATAL ERROR: [1] Solution convergence criteria specified in PIMPLE.residualControl must be given as single values. Corrector loop convergence criteria, if appropriate, are specified as dictionaries in PIMPLE.ResidualControl. When I try to change the residual control settings, everything comes back to the previous situation when I press "run" Do you know how to solve this? Thanks!

Hi and thanks for your comment. The problem occurs because of the version of openFoam. You are using of8 and helxy is built for of4.1. however, you can change the residuals to single values like the error message suggest. Please have a look to a incompressible case of the examples that come with openFoam and copy the settings. Good luck

For me it works in Openfoam8 if you copy fvSolution from Openfoam/tutorials/incomressible/pimpleFoam/RAS/elipsekkLOmega. You have to replace kl|kt by only k.

At least if you start the case in Openfoam

As a semi professional cfd user, the mesh is good enough for demonstrations. Do you benchmark your simulation with experimental or numerical data? Because the mesh should be aligned with the flow as much as possible. If not, false (numerical) cross diffusion is introduced. But as I wrote for demonstrations your guide is perfect.

Hey Marko, thanks for your comment. The industrial applications we do are usually only build once, so there is no measurement possible. Of cause the mesh should point in flow direction. However, that’s not always possible. You can build a very precise mesh using the tools like HyperMesh but from my experience the lack of information of the boundary conditions is usually so large, that it has the biggest influence to the result. Also, most cases we simulate are very rectangular, so the snappyHexMesh generated case it sometime looking not bad at all. You are totally right if it come to rounded structures like in this demonstration. They are not easy to mesh with snappyHexMesh but if you choose a small enough mesh size the error stays usually in the acceptable region if compared in a mesh independency study.

You can use for the velocity boundary condition either a velocity vector that's directed outwards, or you can use a negative volume flow rate. Let us know, if it works

Why not close all the ends of the pipe off and label the inlet, outlets, and walls in SolidWorks?

SW unfortunatly will not create a closed mesh. The nodes are not identical. OpenFoam will then let the mesh creep to the outside
