CFD Direct will provide a packed programme of talks, demos, discussions and training at The OpenFOAM Foundation Expo 2026. If you are a current, new or prospective user of Foundation #OpenFOAM, don't miss it. Book Chicago (Naperville) USA or London UK. cfd.tips/expo
Our #OpenFOAM Training is the only place to get authoritative advice about how to do #CFD with OpenFOAM. Why? Because we design and produce the software so only we know how it is meant to be used. So sign up for out training. cfd.tips/trng
Internet searches and AI assistants can help users of #OpenFOAM. But they fail to explain the process of planning, building and running simulations and processing data that effective #CFD requires. Instead, our OpenFOAM Training teaches this process. cfd.tips/trng
