Valid versions: OF Version 230.png

airInterFoam is a new solver developed to solve the natural entrainment of air into the water, commonly called as air-entrainment. The solver uses the Volume-of-Fluid methodology (present in interFoam) to detect the free-surface position and has an aditional advection equation to follow the entrained air, created on a basis of a source term for air-entrainment. The source code is available for academic purposes.

1.3 Get Connected

To submit your feedback, suggestions, bugs, send an email to pmlopes[at]student.dec.uc.pt.

2 Source Download and Compilation

airInterFoam download site can be found here.

  • To get access to this link send an e-mail to pmlopes[at]student.dec.uc.pt.

2.1 Source Code Download

For a more convenient download of the source code, run the following command:

git clone git@bitbucket.org:pedromiglopes/airinterfoam_v.1.1.1.git

2.2 Compilation

Compilation has been automatized and needs to be performed only once. Since airInterFoam does not require any dependencies, the source code can be downloaded and compiled anywhere on your computer.

Simply run the following instruction from the airInterFoam base folder:

wmake
