Hello, everyone!

In short, I became interested in the OpenFOAM because of my studies.
Spend two days reading different manuals, I decided to compile the code, see all dependencies and build the OpenFOAM-project with some IDE.

BUT...

OpenFOAM using wmake....and I really do not know about it very much (okay, I understand cmakefiles, but it still something new for me).

I find something, that I want (https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/H...d_installation), but it used only one tiny part of OpneFOAM....

I think, here people should be the person, who did this before me.

Update: Or, if you would like more specifically: have we any ways to upgrade the existing turbulence model or add your own?

hello

If what you are looking for is to creat a new turbulence model or edit a current one, then it is an easy task
all you need is creat a new class under the base class of turbulence
you can see the following link for an idea of how to create a class and how to implement, call other variables, and define new dimensional or scalar parameters

Yeap, I know how to program it...I just not completely understand how to include new model to OpenFOAM dependencies correctly.

From OpenFoam point of view (my point of view lol)
The dependencies are made based on the libraries you write in the Make/options file
whenever you include a header it is searched in these directories written in options file

Though from programmer point of view i dont know how this is actually done
so if all you want is to implement a new turbulence model it is my point of view that you need

Okay, and what about adding your own model without disabling existing?
Should we edit make/files or make/options to add our new dependencies?

And, finally, is any way to open OpenFOAM like project in Qt?

[kebsiali]

yeah
you name your model like myPowerLaw
Just like the guy in the link i gave you above did
about Qt i dont know Im just a new foamer started 2 months ago

Yes you can use qt with OF
