Compressibility Effects on Turbulent Heat Transfer of Natural Convection in a Square Cavity
Heat transfer in turbulent flows is one of the essential topics in power plants and thermal-based engineering. This study aims to analyze the effects of density changes due to heat transfer in a turbulent environment—which is usually neglected because it

Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulation of turbulent flow in a circular pipe using OpenFOAM® [PDF]
A RANS simulation of flow through a pipe is performed and validated against experimental data and previous DNS results. A mesh refinement study is performed to illustrate the near wall mesh size needed to correctly predict mean flow characteristics. In

A Library for Wall-Modelled Large-Eddy Simulation Based on OpenFOAM Technology
This work presents a feature-rich open-source library for wall-modelled large-eddy simulation (WMLES), which is a turbulence modelling approach that reduces the computational cost of traditional (wall-resolved) LES by introducing special treatment of the

Abstract Accurately simulating multiphase flows at low capillary numbers remains challenging due to spurious currents and interface discretization errors. We present a systematic comparison of four volume‐of‐fluid (VOF) solvers within the OpenFOAM framework for pressure‐driven Poiseuille–Bingham flow over grooved surfaces: interFoam with classical ...

Integrated Numerical Modelling System for Extreme Wave Events at the Wave Hub Site [PDF]
This paper examines an extreme wave event which occurred during a storm at the Wave Hub site in 2012. The extreme wave of 9.57 m height was identified from a time series of the heave data collected by an Oceanor Seawatch Mini II Buoy deployed at the site.

Experimental Study on Polymer–Polymer Interfacial Thermal Resistance
Interfacial thermal resistance (ITR) in polymer–polymer interfaces is experimentally measured in this paper by the multi‐layered bulk sample approach. Based on numerical simulation and experimental verification, new techniques of layer‐overlapping samples are developed.

MHD supersonic flow control: OpenFOAM simulation [PDF]
MHD flow control is a relevant topic in today’s aerospace engineering. An OpenFOAM density-based solver that is capable of handling MHD supersonic flow problems with constant magnetic field is developed. The proposed solver is based on Balbas-Tadmor central difference schemes.
