• 10-minute quick start guide

Good for beginners, walks you through the basics of creating a simple geometry and extracting results

• The algorithm behind Molflow 2.6

Contains additional information of how pressure is calculated, and how the time-dependent mode works

• User guide for Molflow 2.4

​More detailed description from the user's point of view. Written in 2013, the screenshots are somewhat outdated

• Changelog

Tutorials

• CERN Accelerator School 2017 tutorial

Contains two steady-state simulations: one guiding through simple pumping speed estimation (through manual calculation, formulas, profiles and textures) and one applying these methods on a fictional accelerator part.

• 61th AVS Synopsium tutorial

​Contains two step-by-step guides to setting up a basic, then a time-dependent example.

• KEK seminar on the 26th of November 2014

​Contains the source files and a step-by-step video of a simple RF cavity pressure calculation
