Interface Development of a Module for the interFoam Solver of the OpenFOAM Package

The results of a study on expanding the list of tasks solved using the graphical shell of the OpenFOAM platform by creating and connecting an additional module for the interFoam solver to the basic version of the graphical shell are presented. The relevance of the problem is formulated, the goal and the list of tasks necessary to achieve it. The features of this solver are studied and described in relation to experiments on numerical modeling of problems in continuum mechanics. The possibility of using open technologies to supplement the source code of the graphical shell with new modules covering a larger range of types of problems in continuum mechanics is analyzed. Graphic materials have been prepared that describe the structure and logic of the module being developed. The technology stack used is presented, and the results of testing the updated version of the graphical shell using the example of one of the classic problems of continuum mechanics are presented. The results of the research were summed up, the tasks completed were noted, the expected practical value of the development and possible ways for further research in this direction were indicated, the repository with the source code of the graphical shell on the GitHub service was updated.
