Dear all,
i am conducting hydrodynamical simulations with OpenFOAM. As to my knowledge OpenFOAM uses implementation of the Dirichlet condition, called fixedValue, and the Neumann boundary condition, called fixedGradient.
For a publication I am required to give quotes proving that the fixedValue is indeed a Dirichlet and the fixedGradient a Neumann condition.
Question: Can you name few good sources, that discribe the implementation of the Neumann and Dirichlet boundary condition in OpenFOAM?
Dear Robert,
You can mention this book as a reference (Chapter 18) :
"The Finite Volume Method in Computational Fluid Dynamics : An Advanced Introduction with OpenFOAM® and Matlab"
http://www.gidropraktikum.narod.ru/Moukalled-et-al-FVM-OpenFOAM-Matlab.pdf
Regards.
Thank you very much Mounir, the source has exactly the explanations i was looking for!
If you want more don't hesitate to read the pioneer of openfoam, HRV jasak's phd thesis its about invention of openfoam with finite volume methods and error analysis
