Resumen:
In recent years OpenFOAM R solvers and libraries suite have attracted great attention by the academiaand industrial practitioners. Principal potentialities of this software are full access to the code, easy solvergeneration and modification and a huge and open users community among others.Nevertheless no exhaustive validation against experimental results and with other codes is presented inliterature and there is a big lack of documentation about solver underlying theory.In this work a series of code-to-code validation is presented using experimental values as a reference.Firstly laminar cases are analyzed presenting results for two classical benchmarks, Cubic Cavity andBackward Facing Step. For LES solvers, Cubic Cavity is solved again and the ERCOFTAC Duct Flowswith Smooth and Rough Walls experiment is revisited.Theory and solver settings are presented before results in all cases. Results are in good agreement,showing the reliability of these OpenFOAM R s solvers.
