------------Pull requests are very welcome!
See the [issue tracker](https://github.com/petebachant/turbinesFoam/issues)
for more details.Features
--------`fvOptions` classes for adding actuator lines and turbines constructed from
actuator lines to any compatible solver or turbulence model, e.g.,
`simpleFoam`, `pimpleFoam`, `interFoam`, etc.Installation
------------```bash
cd $WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR
git clone https://github.com/turbinesFoam/turbinesFoam.git
cd turbinesFoam
./Allwmake
```Usage
-----There are tutorials located in `turbinesFoam/tutorials`.
