Hippo

A MOOSE multiapp wrapping OpenFOAM for conjugate heat transfer problems.

Installation

Build instructions can be found in the repository's README.

Alternatively, you can use Hippo in a Docker container. An image with all of Hippo's dependencies pre-installed can be found on quay.io. You will need to mount and install Hippo within the container.

Examples

Conjugate heat transfer

We currently have two examples for the conjugate heat transfer

  1. Flow over heated plate: a simple CHT case highlighting the basic syntax.

  2. Shell and tube heat exchanger: a more complex CHT with two fluid domains.
