How to incorporate Dynamic mesh in SOLVER eg InterFoam-InterDyFoam to say anyother

saddy · May 16, 2017, 11:06

i have been working on interThermalPhaseChangeSolver [CUSTOM MADE]to model boiling phase change.[OPENFOAM[
however i wish to incorporate Dynamic mesh just like interFoam has InterDyMFoam which involves dynamic VOF interface tracking. this saves/reduces computation time about ten folds.[OPENFOAM]
but how to include in my solver i have no idea. which files i have modify and which more codes i have to write???
does any fellow foamers have any idea?

well it's quite a complicated job. but i am glad using application "diffuse" for comparing codes made this job complete in 3 days

I guess the best way may be applying the interphase model to the dynamic solver.

well i opened the codes and it all became clear what i needed to change. you are right, that's easier approach. however i have one more issue
i want to change dynamic meshing of openfoam to that of gerris. oct-tree approach is very effective.
any ideas??
i have one leads here on this forum: super moderator

check it out. its really good

Hi, How did you incorporated dynamic meshing in your phase change solver?
