Following the generalisation of the TurbulenceModels library to support
non-Newtonian laminar flow including visco-elasticity and extensible to other
form of non-Newtonian behaviour the name TurbulenceModels is misleading and does
not properly represent how general the OpenFOAM solvers now are. The
TurbulenceModels now provides an interface to momentum transport modelling in
general and the plan is to rename it MomentumTransportModels and in preparation
for this the turbulenceProperties dictionary has been renamed momentumTransport
to properly reflect its new more general purpose.
The old turbulenceProperties name is supported for backward-compatibility.
renaming the legacy keywords
RASModel -> model
LESModel -> model
laminarModel -> model
which is simpler and clear within the context in which they are specified, e.g.
RAS
{
model kOmegaSST;
turbulence on;
printCoeffs on;
}
rather than
RAS
{
RASModel kOmegaSST;
turbulence on;
printCoeffs on;
}
The old keywords are supported for backward compatibility.
Now if a <field> file does not exist first the compressed <field>.gz file is
searched for and if that also does not exist the <field>.orig file is searched
for.
This simplifies case setup and run scripts as now setField for example can read
the <field>.orig file directly and generate the <field> file from it which is
then read by the solver. Additionally the cleanCase function used by
foamCleanCase and the Allclean scripts automatically removed <field> files if
there is a corresponding <field>.orig file. So now there is no need for the
Allrun scripts to copy <field>.orig files into <field> or for the Allclean
scripts to explicitly remove them.
