The OpenFOAM Foundation

The OpenFOAM Foundation is a nonprofit organization that manages and supports the development of OpenFOAM, an open-source software used for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. CFD involves using computer models to analyze and predict how fluids like air and water flow around objects or within environments. The Foundation ensures that the software remains free, collaborative, and accessible to researchers, engineers, and companies worldwide. Its goal is to foster a community-driven platform for advancing scientific and engineering simulation capabilities, promoting transparency, innovation, and shared knowledge in fluid dynamics modeling.
