The inside or outside region refinement level is now specified using the simple
"level <level>" entry in refinementRegions e.g.
refinementRegions
{
refinementBox
{
mode inside;
level 5;
}
}
rather than
refinementRegions
{
refinementBox
{
mode inside;
levels ((1E15 5));
}
}
where the spurious "1E15" number is not used and the '((...))' is unnecessary clutter.
Originally the only supported geometry specification were triangulated surfaces,
hence the name of the directory: constant/triSurface, however now that other
surface specifications are supported and provided it is much more logical that
the directory is named accordingly: constant/geometry. All tutorial and
template cases have been updated.
Note that backward compatibility is provided such that if the constant/geometry
directory does not exist but constant/triSurface does then the geometry files
are read from there.
The phase-change functionality in interPhaseChangeFoam has been generalised and
moved into the run-time selectable twoPhaseChange library included into
interFoam providing optional phase-change. The three cavitation models provided
in interPhaseChangeFoam are now included in the twoPhaseChange library and the
two interPhaseChangeFoam cavitation tutorials updated for interFoam.
interPhaseChangeFoam has been replaced by a user redirection script which prints
the following message:
The interPhaseChangeFoam solver has solver has been replaced by the more general
interFoam solver, which now supports phase-change using the new twoPhaseChange
models library.
To run with with phase-change create a constant/phaseChangeProperties dictionary
containing the phase-change model specification, e.g.
phaseChangeModel SchnerrSauer;
pSat 2300; // Saturation pressure
See the following cases for an example converted from interPhaseChangeFoam:
