The mean, prime2Mean and base now have default values:
{
mean on; // (default = on)
prime2Mean on; // (default = off)
base time; // time or iteration (default = time)
window 200; // optional averaging window
windowName w1; // optional window name (default = "")
}
so for the majority of cases for which these defaults are appropriate the
fieldAverage functionObject can now be specified in the functions entry in
controlDict thus:
functions
{
fieldAverage1
{
#includeEtc "caseDicts/postProcessing/fields/fieldAverage.cfg"
fields
(
U.air
U.water
alpha.air
p
);
}
}
also utilising the new fieldAverage.cfg file.
For cases in which these defaults are not appropriate, e.g. the prime2Mean is
also required the optional entries can be specified within sub-dictionaries for
each field, e.g.
fieldAverage1
{
#includeEtc "caseDicts/postProcessing/fields/fieldAverage.cfg"
fields
(
U
{
prime2Mean yes;
}
p
{
prime2Mean yes;
}
);
}
OpenFOAM Configuration
The main OpenFOAM settings are located in the parent etc/ directory. The bash and csh shells are supported and to configure OpenFOAM source etc/bashrc or etc/cshrc respectively which source the following files in the config.sh or config.csh respectively:
settings: core settingsaliases: aliases for interactive shellsunset: sourced to clear as many OpenFOAM environment settings as possiblempi: MPI communications library settingsensight: application settings for EnSightparaview: application settings for ParaViewscotch: application settings for compiling against scotchmetis: application settings for compiling against metis 5
The config.*/example directories contains various example configuration files for the corresponding shell:
compiler: an example of fine tuning ThirdParty compiler settingsopenmpi: an example of fine tuning openmpi settings for OpenFOAMparaview: an example of chaining to the standard config/paraview with a different ParaView_VERSIONprefs: an example of supplying alternative site-defined settings
