Dr Darrin Stephens will deliver this two-day course. 
Participants in the course  will learn the layout of the 
OpenFOAM library, how to copy  and 
compile a solver. In addition, introduction to C++  
programming language, creation of the new turbulence model  as 
a part of the existing 
OpenFOAM library with curvature  correction. Lastly, the 
ability to read the OpenFOAM library  without fear. 


The methodology employed consists of a series of lectures  
that provide a general understanding of OpenFOAM topics 
followed by hands-on work. 
This training focuses on the  OpenFOAM Foundation version 
2.2.x of OpenFOAM.  

Participants will be able to customise top level solvers in  
OpenFOAM after this training course.
