Help to setup a simple 2D moving mesh (Wave Tank Simulation)

Maralady · September 22, 2013, 21:08

I would like to know if someone knows about where to find Dynamic Mesh, Moving Boundaries documentation, I have been reading the tutorials but I was not able to find any valuable information about it.

Imagine a rectangle, 4 walls, left, bottom, right and top wall, I just need to move the left wall based on a sin function, so far so easy, but I can not find information about the solver or how to program the moving boundary, I have been told to use the wave2foam solver (I will check on that right now) but still have to program the moving wall, any suggest? Some documentation that I can use?

Thanks

Can someone please tell me where can I find the interFoam.c file?

The file is in opt/openfoam220/applications/solvers/multiphase/interFoam
