We would like to share the latest extensions to the OpenFOAM CFD workbench (https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=21576). The majority of the work focussed on the extension to turbulent flow and the implementation of meshing utilities that allow us to model more representative geometries for fluid flow which require large meshes (> 1 M cells). Some of the new features include
- Implemented snappyHexMesh for cut-cell Cartesian meshing with porous media
- Implemented cfMesh for cut-cell Cartesian meshing with boundary layers
- Extension to turbulent using RANS (k-w SST).
- To improve code maintenance a new case builder using a modular template structure is adopted
- Workbench supports macro scripting with Python
