OpenFOAM 7 Released

The OpenFOAM Foundation is pleased to announce the release of version 7 of the OpenFOAM open source CFD toolbox. Version 7 is a snapshot of the OpenFOAM development version which, through sustainable development, is always-releasable. It provides new functionality and major improvements to existing code, with strict demands on usability, robustness and extensibility. OpenFOAM 7 includes the following key developments:

Heat transfer: consolidated solvers and improved convergence and robustness.
Particle tracking: improved robustness and optimized computation.
Multiphase: wave damping, configurable inlet phase properties, better settling numerics.
Reacting multiphase models: heat transfer, population balance, breakup, coalescence, etc.
Reactions/combustion: simplified case setup.
Turbulence: improved consistency and stability of wall functions, added sources.
Thermophysical: thermodynamic functions, temperature-strain-dependent viscosity.
Other models: atmospheric, rigid body dynamics, boundary conditions, sources.
Mesh: standardized dynamic mesh capability, improved motion solvers.
Case Configuration: improved data visualization, setup tools, function objects.
Computation: improvements to containers, fields, parallel running, etc.

OpenFOAM 6 Released

The OpenFOAM Foundation is pleased to announce the release of version 6 of the OpenFOAM open source CFD toolbox. Version 6 is a snapshot of the OpenFOAM development version which, through sustainable development, is always-releasable. It provides new functionality and major improvements to existing code, with strict demands on usability, robustness and extensibility. OpenFOAM 6 includes the following key developments:

Conjugate heat transfer (CHT): improved usability, with simplified set up and running.
Rotating/sliding geometries: more robust AMI, and support for periodic cases.
Particle tracking: optimised computation and improved robustness.
Reacting multiphase models: phase change, reactions, drag, breakup, coalescence, etc.
Reactions/combustion: faster, full algebraic Jacobian, significant code redesign.
Other models: water waves and films, turbulence, thermophysics, atmospheric flows.
General: new case setup tools, boundary conditions, function objects, etc.
