Henry Weller b832453b72 multiphaseEulerFoam: replacement for reactingMultiphaseEulerFoam
The new multiphaseEulerFoam is based on reactingMultiphaseEulerFoam with some
improvements and rationalisation to assist maintenance and further development.

The phase system solution has been enhanced to handle two phases more
effectively and all two-phase specific models updated for compatibility so that
multiphaseEulerFoam can also replace reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam.
When running multiphaseEulerFoam with only two-phases the default behaviour is
to solve for both phase-fractions but optionally a reference phase can be
specified so that only the other phase-fraction is solved, providing better
compatibility with the behaviour of reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam.

All reactingMultiphaseEulerFoam and reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam tutorials have
been updated for multiphaseEulerFoam.

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
