A simple solver for calculating SDF function on given mesh.

sdfFoam

A simple solver for calculating sign distance function (SDF) on given mesh based on defined patch.

• Version: Compatible with openfoam7 (WSL2)

Example:

Calculate the distance from the grid to the surface of the square cylinder.

Usage

1.Download the source code

• git clone https://github.com/picpic117/sdfFoam.git

2.To use sdfFoam, follow these steps:

• Set up your OpenFOAM case with mesh.
• Specify the boundary patch from which you want to calculate the signed distance field. You can do this by setting the wallPatchID variable in the sdfFoam.C

3.Compile the solver:

• cd sdfFoam
• wmake

4.On your caseDict, running sdfFoam:

• sdfFoam
