foam-extend-5.0

Version 5.0, nicknamed “Cambridge”, has been released! It is the current version of foam-extend. The release continues the tradition and spirit of the original FOAM code developed by prof. Jasak and Mr. Weller during their time at Imperial College and released as the general purpose CFD/CCM package by Nabla Ltd. in 2000. In this spirit, we reverted 18 December 2013 to the original numbering scheme (foam-2.3.2, 13 December 2004) as release number 3.0. Visit http://foam-extend.org for more information.

The foam-extend project is a fork of the OpenFOAM® open source for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). It is an open welcoming and integrating contributions from all users and developers. Previously known as OpenFOAM-dev and OpenFOAM-extend, contains bug fixes and performance improvements, as well as and additional features provided by community contributors.
