Hi!

I haven't heard about FEATool until now! It looks great. Congrats!

I'm willing to solve a multiphase flow with VOF methods. In particular, I'm interested in simulating the Saffman-Taylor instability (viscous fingering). Since these are my first steps in such a tool, and I found this message in the forum, I'm wondering if you have already worked out any examples with VOF methods to share with me.

Thanks in advance!

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

More OpenFOAM solvers have not been added to FEATool yet. Although its technically possible, it takes significant work to make interfaces for new physics applications. Possibly you could use FEATool to create and export OpenFOAM grids and basic case files, then modify them for the VOF solver, and run it manually.
