cfMesh is an open-source library for volume mesh generation based on OpenFOAM. It implements various meshing workflows for volume mesh generation needed for CFD simulations with OpenFOAM. It is already a part of foam-extend, OpenFOAM for Windows, Caelus and OpenFOAM+ released by ESI. This repository is intended for contribution and collaborative development. If you have a new meshing algorithm or interested in contributing to cfMesh, do not hesitate to contact us. Please note that this code is not the same as CF-MESH+, which is a commercial product offered by Creative Fields Holding.

The goal of this project is to open the OpenFOAM CFD toolbox to community contributed extensions. Visit https://sourceforge.net/p/openfoam-extend/wiki/Home/ for more information. OPENFOAM(R) is a registered trademark of OpenCFD Limited.

The foam-extend project is a fork of the OpenFOAM® open source library for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The goal of this project is to integrate community contributions to the foam-extend CFD simulation toolbox. It is an open project welcoming and integrating contributions from all users and developers.

FEATool Multiphysics (https://www.featool.com) is a fully integrated toolbox for computer aided engineering CAE, finite element analysis & fluid dynamics simulations. With a very easy-to-use GUI, anyone is now able to quickly set up and perform large scale dynamical and complex engineering physics simulations, with coupled fluid flow, heat transfer, structural mechanics, chemical transport, and electromagnetics effects, without having to learn complex programming. In addition to built-in CAD and pre/post-processing, automatic mesh generation, and multi-physics solvers, FEATool also seamlessly integrates the state-of-the-art OpenFOAM [1], SU2, and FEniCS CFD and FEA solvers. Moreover, native itegration with MATLAB and Python allows advanced simulation scripts and programmatic use cases such as in AI and machine learning [2].

FFTW++ is a C++ header class for the FFTW Fast Fourier Transform library that automates memory allocation, alignment, planning, wisdom, and communication on both serial and parallel (OpenMP/MPI) architectures. In 2D and 3D, hybrid dealiasing of convolutions substantially reduces memory usage and computation time. Wrappers for C, Python, and Fortran are included.

OpenFVM is a general open source three-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solver (for Linux and Windows). It uses the unstructured finite volume method to simulate non-isothermal transient flow. Gmsh is used for pre- and post- processing.

This is the native MS windows release of OpenFOAM, an open source toolbox for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). It was built with MinGW C++ as a set of native windows applications, which improves performance and eliminates the need for Unix emulations.

ENGRID is a mesh generation software with CFD applications in mind. It supports automatic prismatic boundary layer grids for Navier-Stokes simulations and has a Qt based GUI.

The ADFC code is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) C++ solver for incompressible viscous flow over 2D and 3D geometries. It uses finite element and the characteristic method on unstructured meshes to solve Navier-Stokes equations.

MagCAD is a set of tools for reconstructing 3D meshes from medical images such as MRI scans and ultra-sound. Resulting meshes are designed for CFD and visualisation
