Creating a Rotating Mesh Interface in OpenFOAM with Cyclic AMI

In this step-by-step tutorial, we build a circular Arbitrary Mesh Interface (AMI) in OpenFOAM for a rotating zone. Starting from geometry creation in Gmsh, we configure SnappyHexMesh, define the rotating zone, fix mesh normals, and set up cyclic AMI boundaries for accurate interpolation between mesh interfaces. You’ll also learn how to move the mesh dynamically, run the simulation, and visualize results in ParaView — without overset meshes. Perfect for anyone working with rotating machinery, sliding meshes, or mesh interfaces in CFD. 00:00 – Introduction to Arbitrary Mesh Interface (AMI) and rotating zone concept 01:08 – Geometry creation and setup in Gmsh 03:05 – Creating inner and outer rotating zones in Gmsh 06:10 – Setting up SnappyHexMesh and importing STL files 10:42 – Fixing mesh normals and using MeshLab for orientation correction 14:02 – Defining cyclic AMI boundaries using createPatchDict 18:10 – Running the steady-state simulation with AMI interface 21:02 – Enabling mesh motion and visualizing rotating results in ParaView 📚Keywords: OpenFOAM AMI tutorial, Arbitrary Mesh Interface OpenFOAM, circular AMI setup, OpenFOAM rotating zone, cyclic AMI OpenFOAM, mesh interface OpenFOAM, snappyHexMesh rotating geometry, dynamic mesh OpenFOAM, Gmsh to OpenFOAM workflow, CFD rotating machinery, sliding mesh OpenFOAM, OpenFOAM simulation tutorial, createPatchDict OpenFOAM, faceZone and AMI interface, ParaView AMI visualization
