The annual OpenFOAM® Workshop is the premier international forum for researchers, industrial users, code developers, consultants and academics to come together and present their work, discuss the code, network, and learn about new developments in OpenFOAM®. It is a community event, welcoming all users from novice to experienced, and users of all branches of the code.

The University of Exeter is pleased to welcome the 12th OpenFOAM® Workshop to Exeter from the 24th – 27th July 2017.

Following tradition there are three elements to the Workshop;

  • A Training Day providing free training from some of the top users and developers of the code. No matter your level – from beginner to advanced – come and learn how to use the code more effectively!
  • The main Conference – plenary and parallel sessions presenting cutting edge research and the latest developments in the code. Submit an abstract to present your work as a presentation or poster, or just come along to see what others are doing. Based on the peer review, selected contributors will also be invited to contribute full papers to a Special Issue in the journal “Computers & Fluids”.
  • The Community day, which is an opportunity for more informal discussions and presentations in areas of interest, such as Wave-Structure Interaction and Turbomachinery.

The OpenFOAM® Workshop is the ideal forum to exchange views and experiences about developments in OpenFOAM®; network with users and programmers with similar interests and establish work partnerships; improve your skills through the free training sessions, and learn how to contribute to OpenFOAM® and to the community of OpenFOAM users. We look forward to welcoming you to Exeter!
