blastFoam with /mnt/c/.../blastfoam #63

Closed f-horsch closed 1 year ago

f-horsch commented 1 year ago

Hello everyone, I am a German student who is currently working on his master's thesis. For this I want to use blastFoam. I did the blastFoam installation as in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfd610LadSU&ab_channel=SynthetikAppliedTechnologies. The simulations via wsl work as expected. However, I cannot run calculations over /mnt/c/.../blastfoam.

.bashrc: # blastFoam win10 source /mnt/c/Users/Florian/Documents/OpenFOAM/blastfoam/etc/bashrc

After starting the terminal, I get the error message: : command not found : command not found : command not found : command not found : command not found

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Kind regards, Florian Horsch

Hello everyone, I can not fix the problem, but as I said above, i can run blastFoam via wsl.

Kind regards, Florian Horsch

Hi Florian, I would suggest compiling OpenFOAM and blastFoam in the WSL section of the machine. You can copy files from the Windows side using the path methods mentioned in your comment, and I believe run cases as well (I typically do not do this). For the actual libraries and executables though, I think those have to be on the linux side (/home/username/OpenFOAM/...).

Thanks, Jeff
