wave generation on open foam ?

ghaniaben · October 8, 2013, 07:35

Good morning

My thesis focuses on the modelling of breaking waves using the LES (Large Eddy Simulation), to make I chose: OpenFoam.

So first before attacking my project, I must start by simulating the wave in a channel, of course always on OpenFoam, and as I'm new here and I do not have enough knowledge with this code , I BLOCKED !

So please, I'm looking for someone who could help me and tell me step by step how to introduce waves on OpenFoam, and establish my simulation.

Please, help me, it's urgent!

Thank you in advance.

Hi there, i may suggest to install waves2foam.
Its a nice plugging how save a lot of hour.
But for the wave breaking (because i don't study it) you should search some information on
http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib/waves2Foam

Have a good Foaming
