Will Bainbridge b790a69507 DimensionedFunction1: Permit setting argument-dimensions of inline functions
Both argument and value dimensions can be set for inline-constructable
function1-s. For example, this inline table function:

    massFlowRate table [CAD] [g/s]
    (
        (0 0.46)
        (0.17 1.9)
        (0.31 4.8)
    );

Is equivalent to this dictionary specification:

    massFlowRate
    {
        type    table;
        xDimensions [CAD];
        dimensions [g/s];
        values
        (
             (0 0.46)
             (0.17 1.9)
             (0.31 4.8)
        );
    }

In the inline form, the argument/x-dimensions come first, and the value
dimensions second. If there only one dimension set provided, then this
is assumed to be the value dimensions.

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 settings
  • aliases: aliases for interactive shells
  • unset: sourced to clear as many OpenFOAM environment settings as possible
  • mpi: MPI communications library settings
  • ensight: application settings for EnSight
  • paraview: application settings for ParaView
  • scotch: application settings for compiling against scotch
  • metis: 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 settings
  • openmpi: an example of fine tuning openmpi settings for OpenFOAM
  • paraview: an example of chaining to the standard config/paraview with a different ParaView_VERSION
  • prefs: an example of supplying alternative site-defined settings
