Explosion inside a cube - blockMesh

shangzung · October 21, 2009, 06:21

Hello!

I want to model a a simple cube and simulate an explosion inside that cube. I thought of another small cube that has high pressure in it, which is ater a while released into the big cube.

Since I am very new with blockMesh, for modelling that in blockMesh I have a question. How many blocks do I have to create at least? Are two blocks (big cube, small cube) enough or won't blockMesh work that way and I will have to create tons of blocks?

I found out that I don't have to create an additional block at all for the case. Just one block is enough.

Hello,

Which solver did you use for your simulation.

Hello!
Which solver are you using to simulate a TNT Explosion on OpenFoam?
Thank you so much!
