pimpleFoam simulation to PimpleDyMFoam simulation

Hi,

I made a case with pimpleFoam for external aerodynamics of a capsule and it works.
Now I would like to change this case to move the capsule (oscillation and rotation). I think pimpleDyMFoam is a good choice.

Someone know what I have to change in my pimpleFoam case to use pimpleDyMFoam?

thanks in advance

Hello

Have a look at a tutorial case with pimpleDyMFoam tutorial... There are many available. Anyways, you will need a dynamicMeshDict for the motion (potentially a pointDisplacement) and adjust the controlDict to run the application pimpleDyMFoam.

Regards,
Brian
