How are the OpenFOAM efforts going? I was hoping I could use a simpler program like Khamsin, a Sketchup plugin--but the CFD solver it uses only seems to work with static meshes. I want to see the effect of the dynamic aerodynamic devices in this Chrysler patent: Motor vehicle with flow-influencing ... - Google Patents And only OpenFOAM seems to support dynamic meshes.

I can't figure out any way to simply prototype and test that physically, even with a lifetime supply of Coroplast :/
