OpenFOAM is an open-source C++ toolbox designed for the development of custom numerical solvers and pre- and post-processing utilities. It is widely used for solving a variety of continuum mechanics problems, including computational fluid dynamics, solid mechanics, electromagnetism, and multiphase flow.
With Inductiva, you can speed up your OpenFOAM simulations by sending them to Cloud machines with hundreds of cores and terabytes of disk space.
Inductiva supports both OpenFOAM distributions: ESI Group and OpenFOAM Foundation, giving you access to the full range of OpenFOAM capabilities.
How to Run OpenFOAM on the Cloud
Running your OpenFOAM simulations on the Cloud is easy. All you need is to create a short Python script that points Inductiva to the simulation artifacts you have on your computer, and we will take it from there.
On the right, we show how to use the Inductiva API to send an OpenFOAM simulation to a 180 vCPU machine (c3d-highcpu-180) hosted on Google Cloud (GCP).
You can copy paste this Python script, adapt it to your own case, and specify the OpenFOAM distribution and version you want to run. Your simulation will start right away, without waiting in a queue.
"""OpenFOAM ESI example."""
import inductiva
# Allocate Google cloud machine
cloud_machine = inductiva.resources.MachineGroup( \
provider="GCP",
machine_type="c3d-highcpu-180")
# Initialize the Simulator
openfoam = inductiva.simulators.OpenFOAM(distribution="esi", version="2412")
# Run simulation with config files in the input directory
task = openfoam.run( \
input_dir="/path/to/my/openfoam/files",
shell_script="./Allrun",
on=cloud_machine)
# Wait for the simulation to finish and download the results
task.wait()
cloud_machine.terminate()
task.download_outputs()
