Openfoam-interactive (OFI): an innovative universal interface to control solvers in openfoam
We present a new method for coupling fluid and particle systems that works by directly manipulating the flow field variables, mimicking the presence of solid particles rather than adding additional force terms in the governing equations as, e.g., in the traditional immersed boundary method (IBM).
