OpenFOAM

Submit OpenFOAM computational fluid dynamics jobs. Uses the same form layout as the General submission page.

Step 1: Job Scheduler Options

• Partition — select the partition.
• Job Name — assign a name.
• CPUs per Task — specify CPU cores.
• Working Directory — where OpenFOAM reads case files and writes results.

Step 2: Application Options

• Command — OpenFOAM commands to execute (required), e.g., blockMesh && simpleFoam. Supports template loading.

Note: GUI mode is not available for OpenFOAM. Container (Apptainer) mode is available via the Container tab.

Step 3: Environment Variables (optional)

Add variables for the OpenFOAM environment (e.g., WM_PROJECT_DIR, FOAM_RUN).

Step 4: Submit

Click Submit to send the job to the SLURM scheduler. Monitor the job on the Job Monitor or check output on the Job Logs page.
