Precompiled packages - CentOS/RedHat/Fedora

For RedHat-based systems, OpenCFD Ltd. is currently using the copr infrastructure to provide RPM packages. Enable copr for OpenFOAM as per the documentation shown in https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/how_to_enable_repo.html

For newer systems:

$ dnf copr enable openfoam/openfoam

Older systems:

$ yum install yum-plugin-copr
$ yum copr enable openfoam/openfoam

Supported versions and distributions

These may change from time to time, but the general goal would be maintain the last two (or three) versions of OpenFOAM supported on latest two EPEL versions and a newer Fedora. However, sometimes updated system packages (Fedora) mean that one of the older OpenFOAM versions needs to be dropped prematurely.

Sub-packages

Following the precompiled packages - sub-packages descriptions, the following represent typical installation commands:

User Group Command
minimalist sudo yum install openfoam2006
traditional sudo yum install openfoam2006-devel
everything sudo yum install openfoam2006-default

Installation locations

As documented in precompiled packages - locations.

After installation - using the OpenFOAM environment
