Henry Weller fe5a991ade solvers::shockFluid: New solver module for density-based solution of compressible flow
executed with foamRun for single region simulations of foamMultiRun for
multi-region simulations.  Replaces rhoCentralFoam and all the corresponding
tutorials have been updated and moved to tutorials/modules/shockFluid.

Unlike rhoCentralFoam shockFluid supports mesh refinement/unrefinement, topology
change, run-time mesh-to-mesh mapping, load-balancing in addition to general
mesh-motion.

The tutorials/modules/shockFluid/movingCone case has been updated to demonstrate
run-time mesh-to-mesh mapping mesh topology change based on the
tutorials/modules/incompressibleFluid/movingCone.  shockFluid s

Description
    Solver module for density-based solution of compressible flow

    Based on central-upwind schemes of Kurganov and Tadmor with support for
    mesh-motion and topology change.

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
