[OpenFoam Tutorial 5] Turbulent Flow in a Pipe with Salome as Mesher

Let’s Talk about Openfoam, Salome and Turbulent Flow Simulation :) In this 5th tutorial, we will look into how to build an OpenFoam model from scratch by using Salome to do the CAD processing and the Meshing! Download the CAD here: I’ll also give you some useful bits of knowledge about turbulence modeling in CFD analysis, so I hope this will be useful!
