Henry Weller 0b8c17d8c1 functionObject,fvModel,fvConstraint: Added automatic library loading
If the libs entry is not provided and the name of the library containing the
functionObject, fvModel or fvConstraint corresponds to the type specified the
corresponding library is automatically loaded, e.g. to apply the
VoFTurbulenceDamping fvModel to an incompressibleVoF simulation the following
will load the libVoFTurbulenceDamping.so library automatically and instantiate
the fvModel:

turbulenceDamping
{
    type            VoFTurbulenceDamping;

    delta           1e-4;
}

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
