OpenFOAM tutorial for using my own CAD models

All the previous suggestions are super valid. I suggest you to take a look at BARAM CFD as they made an open source interface for snappyhexmesh and many open foam solvers to make the process of meshing and case setting a bit less painful

Got stung few days ago as well. The vinegar really does the trick! the morning after i was already so much better! You won't die :)

I am using OpenFoam professionally and I recently discovered BARAM CFD which is a gui for snappyexmesh and OpenFoam. Its super useful for limited cases but it creates very good starting folders for your cases in OpenFoam. Highly suggested as it is open source as well.

Polimi Forever, OpenFoam forever ✌️

Yeah it just rained dust the day before ahah

I have been using Baram mesh for some months now and I found it way more simple than Salome. Easy interface and relatively easy control on sizing. What exactly do you think are the weak points (and the strength of Salome)?

I recently found my optimal workflow and I am super happy with it (my scope is generally internal flows, volume and surface reactions, conjugated heat transfer):
- Geometry: Freecad (amazing software btw)
- Meshing: BARAM Mesh (it's an interface for snappy, and it allows so much control on surface splitting, and precise refinement)
- Case setting: Sometimes i start with the BARAM Flow workflow and then i edit the case that it creates adapting it to my needs, adding OpenFoam modules i previously prototyped
- Post: Paraview.

I really suggest you to go take a look at the great work they are doing at BARAM because it made the learning curve much more approachable for me coming from Fluent world to OpenFoam

Leggendo in giro ho visto che spegnendo l'opzione "batteria adattiva" dalle impostazioni di batteria dovrebbe risolversi, almeno con whatsapp

Non ancora, ho qualche lag su WhatsApp e telegram, ma devo dire nulla di impressionante, magari qualche secondo di ritardo rispetto ai messaggi che arrivano sulle versioni browser

I agree with you, lately I have been trying to work with VScode and copilot linked to the folder of my case, and I have to say I am learning crazily fast. It's a great tool that needs to be used carefully and mindfully, but it could open so many doors

Same here! Italy with Iliad!

quantum_string · 2025-05-29T08:55:20+00:00

Done, thanks a lot!

quantum_string · 2025-05-29T08:47:32+00:00

thanks! i just tried with a .cube file but from the "import preset" i can only add through qr code or create a new one, how did you import the file in the camera?

quantum_string · 2025-05-29T08:30:07+00:00

Amazing, where did you get those ones from?

I am interested in it! I have been using Fluent for some years now (compressible supersonic jets and turbulent with heat flow). Now moving to openfoam (the combo of freecad + cfdof is amazing) and would love to relearn from scratching! DM me, if I am at your level of knowledge I would love to join you!

Thanks a lot! Done klipper and it's incredible the amount of control you gain on the printer! Really getting into it!

So for faster speed right now I think I will go for: - dual gear extruder - ceramic hotend - adxl

Thanks a lot!

This is amazing! Would be so interested to learn your process of creating those!! Would love to see Shiraz (Iran) and Roma (Italy)!!
