OpenFOAM-dev Alternatives

OpenFOAM-dev reviews and mentions

• OpenFOAM on Debian 12
  1 project | /r/debian | 11 Jul 2023

  In openfoam.org, there is not compiled binaries for Debian (any version). So one should install it using docker (I prefer to do not use it) or by compiling the code from the source. I consider compiling from source, but I do prefer binaries.

• What is the best software for me for Aerospace Engineering?

• Please help me get running OpenFOAM
  1 project | /r/OpenFOAM | 21 Feb 2023

  Hello I am a mechanical engineering student in my last year. So I made the wisest decision to learn OpenFOAM. But there is the catch. I have no idea how to use Linux or how to emulate Linux on Windows 10. I found a lot of videos on Youtube how to download an start OpenFOAM but every one of them was using different methods each time so I got confused. Can anyone please help or direct me? Thank you for your answers in advance.(Side question: what is the difference between openfoam.org and openfoam.com? Because one of my courses was using .org version rather than .com version to download the OpenFOAM)

• Step by Step (Written not Video) Tutorial for FEM with Air
  1 project | /r/FreeCAD | 11 Feb 2023

  As far as air flow simulation, I got slightly farther with Open Foam than I did in FreeCAD directly. Still, I got in way over my skill level and stopped before getting anything useful.

• Open source FEA tools instead of ANSYS Workbench and APDL
  2 projects | /r/fea | 25 Jan 2023

  There are two versions of openfoam, one closed source (which is the one I linked to in my original comment, my apologies about that) and the open source version. But what you're describing makes it sound like fenics might be your best option.

• command not found and looping
  1 project | /r/OpenFOAM | 14 Jan 2023

  I suggest you install per the instructions at openfoam.com or openfoam.org instead of using apt.

• Does anyone know of any free/open source thermal/fluids solvers?
  1 project | /r/opensource | 29 Nov 2022

• OpenFoam installation issue
  1 project | /r/OpenFOAM | 20 Nov 2022

  If you haven't used the ESI version (i.e. if you got it from openfoam.org , let me know because the setup is much easier imo.
