Abstract
The focus of this research will be the modelling of heat transfer with fluid-solid coupling for complex geometries in OpenFOAM. In the initial stage, selected aspects of the OpenFOAM toolkit will be introduced, including its fundamentals and usage. Afterwards, the available tools to model heat transfer in a solid wall in contact with a channel of a complex cross-section, through which the fluid flows will be explored. The outcome of this work will be an algorithm that could guide users in simulating a similar case
