This option means that a one field can be mapped to another within the
same patch without specifying the patch name. E.g.:
walls
{
type mappedValue;
//neighbourPatch walls; // <-- Previously required. Still supported.
samePatch yes; // <-- New alternative specification
field T.liquid;
value $internalField;
}
This is useful when the boundary condition is specified using a regular
expression for the patch name.
"wall_.*"
{
type mappedValue;
//neighbourPatch ???; // <-- No unique name can be given
samePatch yes; // <-- Still works
field T.liquid;
value $internalField;
}
The standard Jayatilleke thermal wall function now permits evaluation
via static functions. The boiling wall function now uses these
functions, thereby removing the phase-Jayatilleke base class and
associated duplication of the Jayatilleke model.
It is now possible to map from one field to another within the same
patch, using the mappedValue boundary condition. The restriction is that
the mapping must be from a different field, otherwise field values are
being assigned to themselves, which produces an undefined result.
The mappedValue boundary condition can now be used in place of the
copiedFixedValue condition in the multiphaseEuler module. The
copiedFixedValue condition has therefore been removed.
In addition, the error messages that result from casting a patch to its
mapping engine (mappedPatchBase) have been standardised, and made more
specific to the situation in which the mapping is applied. It may be
inappropriate, for example, to map within the same region or patch.
These cases are now identified and appropriate error messages are
generated.
The error messages have also been made IO errors, so they now provide
context with regards to the dictionary entries that they relate to.
executed with foamRun for single region simulations of foamMultiRun for
multi-region simulations. Replaces multiphaseEulerFoam and all the
corresponding tutorials have been updated and moved to
tutorials/modules/multiphaseEuler.
Class
Foam::solvers::multiphaseEuler
Description
Solver module for a system of any number of compressible fluid phases with a
common pressure, but otherwise separate properties. The type of phase model
is run time selectable and can optionally represent multiple species and
in-phase reactions. The phase system is also run time selectable and can
optionally represent different types of momentum, heat and mass transfer.
Uses the flexible PIMPLE (PISO-SIMPLE) solution for time-resolved and
pseudo-transient and steady simulations.
Optional fvModels and fvConstraints are provided to enhance the simulation
in many ways including adding various sources, Lagrangian
particles, surface film etc. and constraining or limiting the solution.
