[foam-extend.org] Can I install foam-extend-4.1 together with openfoam v8 on my machine?

mrttmr · February 26, 2022, 16:03

Hi all,

I do have openfoam v8 running on my machine. But I also like to use the Immersed Boundary Method's implementation on foam-extend-4.1.

Can I have both openfoam v8 and foam-extend-4.1 installed on the same machine?

Best regards,
- Mert

Yes, Just use alias for switching between versions.

Dear Ashutosh,

Thanks to your hint and the following link, I could get both of them working on my machine.
