This course introduces the open source CFD toolbox,
OpenFOAM. It provides a
foundation for all aspects of OpenFOAM, from running cases
to programming, so is
useful to both new users and existing users wishing to
broaden their basic
knowledge of OpenFOAM.

Course Details:
Running OpenFOAM - Participants undertake exercises in
simulating cases and programming in OpenFOAM using ESI’s
Cloud-based HPC computing platform, accessed via a secure
ssh connection between desktop PCs (provided) or
participants laptops, applicable to all operating systems.
All work from the training will be stored on the cloud and
participants may download all the work and exercises on
their USB flash drives at the end of the training.
Course materials - A high-quality, A5-sized (80-100 page)
wire-bound manual is provided with each course that
participants can use during the course and can later work
through in their own time.
Language - The language used in all OpenFOAM courses is
English. Translations or delivery in French, German,
Italian, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages
are available on request.
Course times - The course is 2 days in duration and
usually runs from 09.00 to 17.30 (local time) each day.
Target audience - The Foundation course is suitable for
new users and existing users seeking to broaden their
basic knowledge, particularly in programming — see
“information on course suitability” for further details.
Prerequisites - No prior knowledge of OpenFOAM, C++ or
Linux is required but a basic knowledge of Linux and C++
is beneficial.
