With the selection of the Boussinesq equation of state the general buoyancy solvers buoyantSimpleFoam and buoyantPimpleFoam can be used instead of the specialised Boussinesq solvers avoiding the need for special implementation of thermal and pressure boundary conditions and providing support for radiation and fvOptions which would not have been feasible or practical in the Boussinesq solvers. Other incompressible equations of state are also supported; for most gaseous problems the incompressiblePerfectGas equation of state is likely to be more accurate than the Boussinesq equation of state. The buoyantBoussinesq[SP]impleFoam tutorials have been updated and moved to the corresponding buoyant[SP]impleFoam directories.
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:
