The new flexible and extensible modular solvers structure already provides most
of the simulation functionality needed for single phase, multiphase,
multicomponent etc. fluid flow problems as well as a very effective method of
combining these with solid heat transfer, solid stress, surface film to solve
complex multi-region, multi-physics problems and are now the primary mechanism
for the further development of OpenFOAM simulation capability in future. To
emphasis this for both users and developers the applications/solvers directory
has been separated into applications/modules containing all the solver modules:
├── modules
│ ├── compressibleMultiphaseVoF
│ ├── compressibleVoF
│ ├── film
│ ├── fluid
│ ├── fluidSolver
│ ├── functions
│ ├── incompressibleDenseParticleFluid
│ ├── incompressibleDriftFlux

│ ├── multiphaseVoFSolver
│ ├── shockFluid
│ ├── solid
│ ├── solidDisplacement
│ ├── twoPhaseSolver
│ ├── twoPhaseVoFSolver
│ ├── VoFSolver
│ └── XiFluid
applications/solvers containing the foamRun and foamMultiRun solver applications
which instantiate and execute the chosen solver modules and also standalone
solver applications for special initialisation and test activities:
├── solvers
│ ├── boundaryFoam
│ ├── chemFoam
│ ├── foamMultiRun
│ ├── foamRun
│ └── potentialFoam
and applications/legacy containing legacy solver applications which are not
currently being actively developed but the functionality of which will be merged
into the solver modules or form the basis of new solver modules as the need
arises:
├── legacy

│ │ ├── financialFoam
│ │ └── laplacianFoam
│ ├── combustion
│ │ └── PDRFoam

│ │ ├── icoFoam
│ │ ├── porousSimpleFoam
│ │ └── shallowWaterFoam
│ └── lagrangian
│ ├── dsmcFoam
│ ├── mdEquilibrationFoam
│ └── mdFoam
Correspondingly the tutorials directory structure has been reorganised with the
modular solver directories at the top level with names that make it easier for
users to find example cases relating to their particular requirements and a
legacy sub-directory containing cases corresponding to the legacy solver
applications listed above:

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:
compiler: an example of fine tuning ThirdParty compiler settingsopenmpi: an example of fine tuning openmpi settings for OpenFOAMparaview: an example of chaining to the standard config/paraview with a different ParaView_VERSIONprefs: an example of supplying alternative site-defined settings
