However, the OpenFoam related code is independent from CalculiX, except for the Material class. The code will attempt to merge with master for version 0.17 after review.

I would love to see some feedback for stage III development, see roadmap:Ī video preview of OpenFoam plugin for FreeCAD Fem workbench This is an early preview, only for people with experience of OpenFoam. OpenFOAM for FreeCAD finishes stage II development My current day-work project is using Fenics to solve multiphysics problem, once some one can export FreeCAD fem mesh to FEnics, we can solve more physics problem easily. This is a be good choice, as FEM workbench is changing very fast to maintain CFD workbench and dev in C++ is more painful. Their boundary setting class is implemented in python, so it is kind of self-contained. They have more resource than me, hopefully, they can mature this workbench asap.

Please refer to this post for new feature fork. In the future I will focus on non-gui part, 'FoamCaseBuilder' which can work without FreeCAD in text mode. I am not available until July 2017 to work on this project.
