Engys

Talking CFD

I enjoy all the interviews, but I particularly enjoyed this one — part-business, part-history lesson, in a good way. I’m joined by Eugene de Villiers to talk about the company he co-founded – Engys. Alongside discussing Engys, it’s products and services, we also dig into the wider world of OpenFOAM, including: • Some of the early history, before FOAM was Open • Whether the current “splitered” OpenFOAM ecosystem could actually be a good thing? • Whether another open-source CFD code could hope to displace OpenFOAM? I naturally gravitate towards OpenFOAM-related companies, it’s a self-acknowledged bias on my part. But I think you’ll get something out of this interview whether you have an interest in OpenFOAM or not - enjoy.
