The combustion and chemistry models no longer select and own the
thermodynamic model; they hold a reference instead. The construction of
the combustion and chemistry models has been changed to require a
reference to the thermodyanmics, rather than the mesh and a phase name.
At the solver-level the thermo, turbulence and combustion models are now
selected in sequence. The cyclic dependency between the three models has
been resolved, and the raw-pointer based post-construction step for the
combustion model has been removed.
The old solver-level construction sequence (typically in createFields.H)
was as follows:
autoPtr<combustionModels::psiCombustionModel> combustion
(
combustionModels::psiCombustionModel::New(mesh)
);
psiReactionThermo& thermo = combustion->thermo();
// Create rho, U, phi, etc...
autoPtr<compressible::turbulenceModel> turbulence
(
compressible::turbulenceModel::New(rho, U, phi, thermo)
);
combustion->setTurbulence(*turbulence);
The new sequence is:
autoPtr<psiReactionThermo> thermo(psiReactionThermo::New(mesh));
// Create rho, U, phi, etc...
autoPtr<compressible::turbulenceModel> turbulence
(
compressible::turbulenceModel::New(rho, U, phi, *thermo)
);
autoPtr<combustionModels::psiCombustionModel> combustion
(
combustionModels::psiCombustionModel::New(*thermo, *turbulence)
);
"pos" now returns 1 if the argument is greater than 0, otherwise it returns 0.
This is consistent with the common mathematical definition of the "pos" function:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_(mathematics)
However the previous implementation in which 1 was also returned for a 0
argument is useful in many situations so the "pos0" has been added which returns
1 if the argument is greater or equal to 0. Additionally the "neg0" has been
added which returns 1 if if the argument is less than or equal to 0.
to avoid duplicate instantiation of the thermodynamics package.
The 'zoneCombustion' model is now selected in constant/combustionProperties by
either
combustionModel zoneCombustion<psiCombustionModel>;
or
combustionModel zoneCombustion<rhoCombustionModel>;
as appropriate.
