Motivated to use preCICE with SOWFA-6 library, this version builds on top of the preCICE OpenFOAM adapter v1.2.0 to include following variables for FF coupling:
- PressureRgh
- Temperature
- EddyViscosity
- KinematicThermalConductivity
- TKE
- TurbulentDissipationRate
- TurbulentSpecificDissipationRate ... and their gradients.
See the adapter documentation and related tutorials.

This project is actively maintained on precice/openfoam-adapter. Current maintainers: @MakisH and @DavidSCN.
This adapter was developed as part of Gerasimos Chourdakis' master's thesis [1]. It is based on previous work by Lucia Cheung (master's thesis [2], in cooperation with SimScale).
The fluid-structure interaction module was developed in close collaboration between Gerasimos Chourdakis and Derek Risseeuw (TU Delft), in the context of the master's thesis of the latter [3]. We would also like to thank David Schneider (Univ. Siegen / TUM) and Maximilian Müller (TU Braunschweig) for sharing the code and experience of their similar previous work.
The fluid-fluid coupling module was added by Gerasimos Chourdakis, in the context of his dissertation. #67
The adapter is easily extensible.
