Might publish a blog or two in a few weeks about my work with OpenFOAM, different profilers, and an implementation of an LBM CFD kernel on RISC-V with POSITS.

What a great company to be working for. Learning so much!

Has anyone here worked with DBD plasma actuators for separation control at low Reynolds numbers (Re ~10⁵–10⁶)?
I’m especially interested in practical integration and validation using OpenFOAM or SU2.

I’m interested in active boundary-layer control (DBD plasma actuators), low-speed aerodynamics, and open-source CFD workflows on Linux. Happy to exchange ideas, experiments, and practical insights.

After some trial and error, I realized that to use foamPostProcess on a case directory—even if it’s the default one—you have to include the -solver option. It’s probably documented somewhere, but I couldn’t find it.

Now that I have a reasonably fast CPU again I descended into the #CFD rabbit hole again. #OpenFOAM has a really steep learning curve (it is the opposite of plug-and-play). I last touched it in 2016. So far I have mostly modified some tutorial projects, but it is fascinating. The image shows the pressure distribution (red: higher, blue: lower) on a crude P.180 model created in #OpenVSP.

If when you execute `paraFoam` in #OpenFOAM you get `paraview: not found` and you could not repair it, you can create a `.foam` file via `foamToVTK` and save the output to a .foam file and open it via #paraview.
