9e0373cc12 codedFunctionObjectTemplate: Added #include "volFields.H"
The codedFunctionObjectTemplate is based on regionFunctionObject requiring
fvMesh.H and most manipulate volFields so it makes sense for volFields.H to be
included by default.

dc85d509b0 #includeFunc, #includeModel, #includeConstraint: Changed entry renaming option to "name"
This is a more intuitive keyword than "funcName" or "entryName". A
function object's name and corresponding output directory can now be
renamed as follows:

    #includeFunc patchAverage
    (
        name=cylinderT, // <-- was funcName=... or entryName=...
        region=fluid,
        patch=fluid_to_solid,
        field=T
    )

Some packaged functions previously relied on a "name" argument that
related to an aspect of the function; e.g., the name of the faceZone
used by the faceZoneFlowRate function. These have been disambiguated.
This has also made them consistent with the preferred input syntax of
the underlying function objects.

Examples of the changed #includeFunc entries are shown below:

    #includeFunc faceZoneAverage
    (
        faceZone=f0, // <-- was name=f0
        U
    )

    #includeFunc faceZoneFlowRate
    (
        faceZone=f0 // <-- was name=f0
    )

    #includeFunc populationBalanceSizeDistribution
    (
        populationBalance=bubbles,
        regionType=cellZone,
        cellZone=injection, // <-- was name=injection
        functionType=volumeDensity,
        coordinateType=diameter,
        normalise=yes
    )

    #includeFunc triSurfaceAverage
    (
        triSurface=mid.obj, // <-- was name=mid.obj
        p
    )

    #includeFunc triSurfaceVolumetricFlowRate
    (
        triSurface=mid.obj // <-- was name=mid.obj
    )

    #includeFunc uniform
    (
        fieldType=volScalarField,
        fieldName=alpha, // <-- was name=alpha
        dimensions=[0 0 0 0 0 0 0],
        value=0.2
    )

3a269eb3d7 #includeModel, #includeConstraint: New dictionary directives
#includeModel includes an fvModel configuration file into the fvModels file
 #includeConstraint includes an fvModel configuration file into the fvConstraints file

These operate in the same manner as #includeFunc does for functionObjects and
search the etc/caseDicts/fvModels and etc/caseDicts/fvConstraints directories
for configuration files and apply optional argument substitution.

Class
    Foam::functionEntries::includeFvModelEntry

Description
    Specify a fvModel dictionary file to include, expects the
    fvModel name to follow with option arguments (without quotes).

    Searches for fvModel dictionary file in user/group/shipped
    directories allowing for version-specific and version-independent files
    using the following hierarchy:
    - \b user settings:
      - ~/.OpenFOAM/\<VERSION\>/caseDicts/fvModels
      - ~/.OpenFOAM/caseDicts/fvModels
    - \b group (site) settings (when $WM_PROJECT_SITE is set):

      - $WM_PROJECT_INST_DIR/site/etc/caseDicts/fvModels
    - \b other (shipped) settings:
      - $WM_PROJECT_DIR/etc/caseDicts/fvModels

    The optional field arguments included in the name are inserted in 'field' or
    'fields' entries in the fvModel dictionary and included in the name
    of the fvModel entry to avoid conflict.

    Examples:
    \verbatim
        #includeModel clouds
        #includeModel surfaceFilms
    \endverbatim

    Other dictionary entries may also be specified using named arguments.

76d44e9638 pimpleNoLoopControl: added predictTransport() function to control the transport modelling prediction
The new optional PIMPLE control transportPredictionFirst is used to select if
the transport modelling predictor is executed ever PIMPLE iteration or only on
the first, which is the default.

Also the transportCorr() function has been renamed correctTransport() for
consistency and the tutorials updated to use the new control name
transportCorrectionFinal instead of the previous name turbOnFinalIterOnly;
support for turbOnFinalIterOnly is maintained for backwards-compatibility.

87a0b8a515 basicThermo: Renamed thermo:psi -> psi, thermo:mu -> mu and thermo:kappa -> kappa
The basic thermophysical properties are now considered fundamental and complex
models like kineticTheoryModel using these names for some other purpose must
disambiguate using typedName to prepend the model name to the field name.

This change standardises, rationalises and simplifies the specification of
fvSchemes and boundary conditions.

thermo:rho will also be renamed rho in a subsequent commit to complete this
rationalisation.

cdaaa61987 solidThermophysicalTransportModel: new thermophysical transport model for solids
to handle isotropic and anisotropic is a consistent, general and extensible
manner, replacing the horrible hacks which were in solidThermo.

This is entirely consistent with thermophysicalTransportModel for fluids and
provides the q() and divq() for the solid energy conservation equations.  The
transport model and properties are specified in the optional
thermophysicalTransport dictionary, the default model being isotropic if this
dictionary file is not present, thus providing complete backward-compatibility
for the common isotropic cases.

Anisotropic thermal conductivity is now handled in a much more general manner by
the anisotropic model:

Class
    Foam::solidThermophysicalTransportModels::anisotropic

Description
    Solid thermophysical transport model for anisotropic thermal conductivity

    The anisotropic thermal conductivity field is evaluated from the solid
    material anisotropic kappa specified in the physicalProperties dictionary
    transformed into the global coordinate system using default
    coordinate system and optionally additional coordinate systems specified
    per-zone in the thermophysicalProperties dictionary.

Usage
    Example of the anisotropic thermal conductivity specification in
    thermophysicalProperties with two zone-based coordinate systems in
    addition to the default:

    \verbatim
    model anisotropic;

    // Default coordinate system
    coordinateSystem
    {
        type        cartesian;
        origin      (0 0 0);
        coordinateRotation
        {
            type        cylindrical;
            e3          (1 0 0);
        }
    }

    // Optional zone coordinate systems
    zones
    {
        coil1
        {
            type        cartesian;
            origin      (0.1 0.2 0.7);
            coordinateRotation
            {
                type        cylindrical;
                e3          (0.5 0.866 0);
            }
        }

        coil2
        {
            type        cartesian;
            origin      (0.4 0.5 1);
            coordinateRotation
            {
                type        cylindrical;
                e3          (0.866 0.5 0);
            }
        }
    }
    \endverbatim

This development required substantial rationalisation of solidThermo,
coordinateSystems and updates to the solid solver module, solidDisplacementFoam,
the wallHeatFlux functionObject, thermalBaffle and all coupled thermal boundary
conditions.

8d229041dd mappedPatchBase: Separated into mapped and mappedInternal
The mappedPatchBase has been separated into a type which maps from
another patch (still called mappedPatchBase) and one that maps from
internal cell values (mappedInternalPatchBase). This prevents the user
needing to specify settings for mapping procedures that are not being
used, and potentially don't even make sense given the context in which
they are being applied. It also removes a lot of fragile logic and error
states in the mapping engine and its derivatives regarding the mode of
operation. Mapping from any face in the boundary is no longer supported.

Most region-coupling mapping patches are generated automatically by
utilities like splitMeshRegions and extrudeToRegionMesh. Cases which
create region-coupling mapped patches in this way will likely require no
modification.

Explicitly user-specified mapping will need modifying, however. For
example, where an inlet boundary is mapped to a downstream position in
order to evolve a developed profile. Or if a multi-region simulation is
constructed manually, without using one of the region-generating
utilities.

The available mapped patch types are now as follows:

  - mapped: Maps values from one patch to another. Typically used for
    inlets and outlets; to map values from an outlet patch to an inlet
    patch in order to evolve a developed inlet profile, or to permit
    flow between regions. Example specification in blockMesh:

        inlet
        {
            type    mapped;
            neighbourRegion region0;  // Optional. Defaults to the same
                                      // region as the patch.
            neighbourPatch outlet;
            faces   ( ... );
        }

    Note that any transformation between the patches is now determined
    automatically. Alternatively, it can be explicitly specified using
    the same syntax as for cyclic patches. The "offset" and "distance"
    keywords are no longer used.

  - mappedWall: As mapped, but treated as a wall for the purposes of
    modelling (wall distance). No transformation. Typically used for
    thermally coupling different regions. Usually created automatically
    by meshing utilities. Example:

        fluid_to_solid
        {
            type    mappedWall;
            neighbourRegion solid;
            neighbourPatch solid_to_fluid;
            method  intersection;     // The patchToPatch method. See
                                      // below.
            faces   ( ... );
        }

  - mappedExtrudedWall: As mapped wall, but with corrections to account
    for the thickness of an extruded mesh. Used for region coupling
    involving film and thermal baffle models. Almost always generated
    automatically by extrudeToRegionMesh (so no example given).

  - mappedInternal: Map values from internal cells to a patch. Typically
    used for inlets; to map values from internal cells to the inlet in
    order to evolve a developed inlet profile. Example:

        inlet
        {
            type    mappedInternal;
            distance 0.05;            // Normal distance from the patch
                                      // from which to map cell values
            //offset  (0.05 0 0);     // Offset from the patch from
                                      // which to map cell values
            faces   ( ... );
        }

    Note that an "offsetMode" entry is no longer necessary. The mode
    will be inferred from the presence of the distance or offset
    entries. If both are provided, then offsetMode will also be required
    to choose which setting applies.

The mapped, mappedWall and mappedExtrudedWall patches now permit
specification of a "method". This selects a patchToPatch object and
therefore determines how values are transferred or interpolated between
the patches. Valid options are:

  - nearest: Copy the value from the nearest face in the neighbouring
    patch.

  - matching: As nearest, but with checking to make sure that the
    mapping is one-to-one. This is appropriate for patches that are
    identically meshed.

  - inverseDistance: Inverse distance weighting from a small stencil of
    nearby faces in the neighbouring patch.

  - intersection: Weighting based on the overlapping areas with faces in
    the neighbouring patch. Equivalent to the previous AMI-based mapping
    mode.

If a method is not specfied, then the pre-existing approach will apply.
This should be equivalent to the "nearest" method (though in most such
cases, "matching" is probably more appropriate). This fallback may be
removed in the future once the patchToPatch methods have been proven
robust.

The important mapped boundary conditions are now as follows:

  - mappedValue: Maps values from one patch to another, and optionally
    modify the mapped values to recover a specified average. Example:

        inlet
        {
            type    mappedValue;
            field   U;                // Optional. Defaults to the same
                                      // as this field.
            average (10 0 0);         // The presence of this entry now
                                      // enables setting of the average,
                                      // so "setAverage" is not needed
            value   uniform 0.1;
        }

  - mappedInternalValue: Map values from cells to a patch, and
    optionally specify the average as in mappedValue. Example:

        inlet
        {
            type    mappedValue;
            field   k;                // Optional. Defaults to the same
                                      // as this field.
            interpolationScheme cell;
            value   uniform 0.1;
        }

  - mappedFlowRateVelocity: Maps the flow rate from one patch to
    another, and use this to set a patch-normal velocity. Example:

        inlet
        {
            type    mappedFlowRate;
            value   uniform (0 0 0);
        }

Of these, mappedValue and mappedInternalValue can override the
underlying mapped patch's settings by additionally specifying mapping
information (i.e., the neighbourPatch, offset, etc... settings usually
supplied for the patch). This also means these boundary condtions can be
applied to non-mapped patches. This functionality used to be provided
with a separate "mappedField" boundary condition, which has been removed
as it is no longer necessary.

Other mapped boundary conditions are either extremely niche (e.g.,
mappedVelocityFlux), are always automatically generated (e.g.,
mappedValueAndPatchInternalValue), or their usage has not changed (e.g.,
compressible::turbulentTemperatureCoupledBaffleMixed and
compressible::turbulentTemperatureRadCoupledMixed). Use foamInfo to
obtain further details about these conditions.

7fdde885fe fvCellSet: The selectionMode entry is now optional
Description
    General cell set selection class for models that apply to sub-sets
    of the mesh.

    Currently supports cell selection from a set of points, a specified cellSet
    or cellZone or all of the cells.  The selection method can either be
    specified explicitly using the \c selectionMode entry or inferred from the
    presence of either a \c cellSet, \c cellZone or \c points entry.  The \c
    selectionMode entry is required to select \c all cells.

Usage
    Examples:
    \verbatim
        // Apply everywhere
        selectionMode   all;

        // Apply within a given cellSet
        selectionMode   cellSet; // Optional
        cellSet         rotor;

        // Apply within a given cellZone
        selectionMode   cellZone; // Optional
        cellSet         rotor;

        // Apply in cells containing a list of points
        selectionMode   points; // Optional
        points

160ee637f9 MRF: Further developed to replace SRF
MRF (multiple reference frames) can now be used to simulate SRF (single
reference frame) cases by defining the MRF zone to include all the cells is the
mesh and applying appropriate boundary conditions.  The huge advantage of this
is that MRF can easily be added to any solver by the addition of forcing terms
in the momentum equation and absolute velocity to relative flux conversions in
the formulation of the pressure equation rather than having to reformulate the
momentum and pressure system based on the relative velocity as in traditional
SRF.  Also most of the OpenFOAM solver applications and all the solver modules
already support MRF.

To enable this generalisation of MRF the transformations necessary on the
velocity boundary conditions in the MRF zone can no longer be handled by the
MRFZone class itself but special adapted fvPatchFields are required.  Although
this adds to the case setup it provides much greater flexibility and now complex
inlet/outlet conditions can be applied within the MRF zone, necessary for some
SRF case and which was not possible in the original MRF implementation.  Now for
walls rotating within the MRF zone the new 'MRFnoSlip' velocity boundary
conditions must be applied, e.g. in the
tutorials/modules/incompressibleFluid/mixerVessel2DMRF/constant/MRFProperties
case:

boundaryField
{
    rotor
    {
        type            MRFnoSlip;
    }

    stator
    {
        type            noSlip;
    }

    front
    {
        type            empty;
    }

    back
    {
        type            empty;
    }
}

similarly for SRF cases, e.g. in the
tutorials/modules/incompressibleFluid/mixerSRF case:

boundaryField
{
    inlet
    {
        type            fixedValue;
        value           uniform (0 0 -10);
    }

    outlet
    {
        type            pressureInletOutletVelocity;
        value           $internalField;
    }

    rotor
    {
        type            MRFnoSlip;
    }

    outerWall
    {
        type            noSlip;
    }

    cyclic_half0
    {
        type            cyclic;
    }

    cyclic_half1
    {
        type            cyclic;
    }
}

For SRF case all the cells should be selected in the MRFproperties dictionary
which is achieved by simply setting the optional 'selectionMode' entry to all,
e.g.:

SRF
{
    selectionMode   all;

    origin      (0 0 0);
    axis        (0 0 1);

    rpm         1000;
}

In the above the rotational speed is set in RPM rather than rad/s simply by
setting the 'rpm' entry rather than 'omega'.

The tutorials/modules/incompressibleFluid/rotor2DSRF case is more complex and
demonstrates a transient SRF simulation of a rotor requiring the free-stream
velocity to rotate around the apparently stationary rotor which is achieved
using the new 'MRFFreestreamVelocity' velocity boundary condition.  The
equivalent simulation can be achieved by simply rotating the entire mesh and
keeping the free-stream flow stationary and this is demonstrated in the
tutorials/modules/incompressibleFluid/rotor2DRotating case for comparison.

The special SRFSimpleFoam and SRFPimpleFoam solvers are now redundant and have
been replaced by redirection scripts providing details of the case migration
process.

792585f9ee foamPostProcess: Update all tutorials and documentation from postProcess to the new foamPostProcess 2022-08-05 12:21:59 +01:00
968e60148a New modular solver framework for single- and multi-region simulations
in which different solver modules can be selected in each region to for complex
conjugate heat-transfer and other combined physics problems such as FSI
(fluid-structure interaction).

For single-region simulations the solver module is selected, instantiated and
executed in the PIMPLE loop in the new foamRun application.

For multi-region simulations the set of solver modules, one for each region, are
selected, instantiated and executed in the multi-region PIMPLE loop of new the
foamMultiRun application.

This provides a very general, flexible and extensible framework for complex
coupled problems by creating more solver modules, either by converting existing
solver applications or creating new ones.

The current set of solver modules provided are:

isothermalFluid
    Solver module for steady or transient turbulent flow of compressible
    isothermal fluids with optional mesh motion and mesh topology changes.

    Created from the rhoSimpleFoam, rhoPimpleFoam and buoyantFoam solvers but
    without the energy equation, hence isothermal.  The buoyant pressure
    formulation corresponding to the buoyantFoam solver is selected
    automatically by the presence of the p_rgh pressure field in the start-time
    directory.

fluid
    Solver module for steady or transient turbulent flow of compressible fluids
    with heat-transfer for HVAC and similar applications, with optional
    mesh motion and mesh topology changes.

    Derived from the isothermalFluid solver module with the addition of the
    energy equation from the rhoSimpleFoam, rhoPimpleFoam and buoyantFoam
    solvers, thus providing the equivalent functionality of these three solvers.

multicomponentFluid
    Solver module for steady or transient turbulent flow of compressible
    reacting fluids with optional mesh motion and mesh topology changes.

    Derived from the isothermalFluid solver module with the addition of
    multicomponent thermophysical properties energy and specie mass-fraction
    equations from the reactingFoam solver, thus providing the equivalent
    functionality in reactingFoam and buoyantReactingFoam.  Chemical reactions
    and/or combustion modelling may be optionally selected to simulate reacting
    systems including fires, explosions etc.

solid
    Solver module for turbulent flow of compressible fluids for conjugate heat
    transfer, HVAC and similar applications, with optional mesh motion and mesh
    topology changes.

    The solid solver module may be selected in solid regions of a CHT case, with
    either the fluid or multicomponentFluid solver module in the fluid regions
    and executed with foamMultiRun to provide functionality equivalent
    chtMultiRegionFoam but in a flexible and extensible framework for future
    extension to more complex coupled problems.

All the usual fvModels, fvConstraints, functionObjects etc. are available with
these solver modules to support simulations including body-forces, local sources,
Lagrangian clouds, liquid films etc. etc.

Converting compressibleInterFoam and multiphaseEulerFoam into solver modules
would provide a significant enhancement to the CHT capability and incompressible
solvers like pimpleFoam run in conjunction with solidDisplacementFoam in
foamMultiRun would be useful for a range of FSI problems.  Many other
combinations of existing solvers converted into solver modules could prove
useful for a very wide range of complex combined physics simulations.

All tutorials from the rhoSimpleFoam, rhoPimpleFoam, buoyantFoam, reactingFoam,
buoyantReactingFoam and chtMultiRegionFoam solver applications replaced by
solver modules have been updated and moved into the tutorials/modules directory:

Also redirection scripts are provided for the replaced solvers which call
foamRun -solver <solver module name> or foamMultiRun in the case of
chtMultiRegionFoam for backward-compatibility.

Documentation for foamRun and foamMultiRun:

Application
    foamRun

Description
    Loads and executes an OpenFOAM solver module either specified by the
    optional \c solver entry in the \c controlDict or as a command-line
    argument.

    Uses the flexible PIMPLE (PISO-SIMPLE) solution for time-resolved and
    pseudo-transient and steady simulations.

Usage
    \b foamRun [OPTION]

      - \par -solver <name>
        Solver name

      - \par -libs '(\"lib1.so\" ... \"libN.so\")'
        Specify the additional libraries loaded

    Example usage:
      - To run a \c rhoPimpleFoam case by specifying the solver on the
        command line:
        \verbatim
            foamRun -solver fluid
        \endverbatim

      - To update and run a \c rhoPimpleFoam case add the following entries to
        the controlDict:
        \verbatim
            application     foamRun;

            solver          fluid;
        \endverbatim
        then execute \c foamRun

Application
    foamMultiRun

Description
    Loads and executes an OpenFOAM solver modules for each region of a
    multiregion simulation e.g. for conjugate heat transfer.

    The region solvers are specified in the \c regionSolvers dictionary entry in
    \c controlDict, containing a list of pairs of region and solver names,
    e.g. for a two region case with one fluid region named
    liquid and one solid region named tubeWall:
    \verbatim
        regionSolvers
        {
            liquid          fluid;
            tubeWall        solid;
        }
    \endverbatim

    The \c regionSolvers entry is a dictionary to support name substitutions to
    simplify the specification of a single solver type for a set of
    regions, e.g.
    \verbatim
        fluidSolver     fluid;
        solidSolver     solid;

        regionSolvers
        {
            tube1             $fluidSolver;
            tubeWall1         solid;
            tube2             $fluidSolver;
            tubeWall2         solid;
            tube3             $fluidSolver;
            tubeWall3         solid;
        }
    \endverbatim

    Uses the flexible PIMPLE (PISO-SIMPLE) solution for time-resolved and
    pseudo-transient and steady simulations.

Usage
    \b foamMultiRun [OPTION]

      - \par -libs '(\"lib1.so\" ... \"libN.so\")'
        Specify the additional libraries loaded

    Example usage:
      - To update and run a \c chtMultiRegion case add the following entries to
        the controlDict:
        \verbatim
            application     foamMultiRun;

            regionSolvers
            {
                fluid           fluid;
                solid           solid;
            }
        \endverbatim
        then execute \c foamMultiRun
