3D Hydraulic Modelling Essentials - Introduction to OpenFOAM

Australian Water School via YouTube

Overview

Explore the essentials of 3D hydraulic modelling in this informative webinar from the Australian Water School. Delve into the world of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and discover how it surpasses traditional 1D and 2D models by incorporating vertical effects. Learn about the assumptions, best practices, data requirements, hardware, and software options for assessing hydraulic structures. Gain insights into using OpenFOAM, a free and open-source software, for developing basic 3D models of hydraulic structures. Follow along as expert presenters guide you through the process, covering topics such as CFD workflows, model structures, the interFoam solver, and 3D CFD hydraulics. Prepare for an upcoming live course and expand your knowledge of water infrastructure and numerical modelling techniques.
