Will Bainbridge 5c7131288c foamPostProcess: New volAverage and volIntegrate packaged function objects
These additions mean that the volume-weighted average or volume integral
of a field can be conveniently post-processed. This can be done
interactively using foamPostProcess:

    foamPostProcess -func "volAverage(U)"
    foamPostProcess -func "volIntegrate(rho)"

Or at run-time by adding to the functions sub-section of the
controlDict:

    #includeFunc volAverage(U)
    #includeFunc volIntegrate(rho)

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
