All models that require templating on the thermodynamic model, including
the thermodynamic models themselves, are now instantiated using a
centralised set of variadic macros. Seven macros exist to instantiate
models for different classes of thermodynamics model. These are:
forGases: All model combinations valid for gases
forCommonGases: The most commonly used gas models
forAbsoluteGases: A limited selection of gas models with absolute
forms of energy, for use with Xi-combustion models
forLiquids: All model combinations valid for liquids
forCommonLiquids: The most commonly used liquid models
forPolynomials: Model combinations with properties fitted to
polynomials
forSolids: All model combinations valid for solids
All the *ThermoPhysics typedefs have been removed, as this system was
fundamentally not extensible. The enormous lists of thermodynamic
instantiations that existed for reaction thermos, chemistry models,
tabulation methods, etc..., were extremely difficult to read and reason
about what combinations are valid under what circumstances. This change
centralises those decisions, makes them concise and readable, and makes
them consistent across the entire codebase.
Soot model selection has now been brought up to date in line with
chemistry, combustion, and others. The angle-bracketed part of the name
is no longer necessary; this information is determined directly from the
existing thermo model. So, now to select a mixture-fraction soot model,
the entry is simply:
sootModel mixtureFraction;
Rather than:
sootModel mixtureFraction<rhoReactionThermo,gasHThermoPhysics>;
The only place in which *ThermoPhysics typedefs are still required in
the selection name is in the thermalBaffle1D boundary condition. Here
there is no thermo model from which to determine a name. This eventually
needs resolving either by adding a selection mechanism similar to that
of the thermo packages themselves, or by removing this boundary
condition in favour of the (non-1D) thermal baffle boundary condition
and region model.

About OpenFOAM
OpenFOAM is a free, open source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package released by the OpenFOAM Foundation. It has a large user base across most areas of engineering and science, from both commercial and academic organisations. OpenFOAM has an extensive range of features to solve anything from complex fluid flows involving chemical reactions, turbulence and heat transfer, to solid dynamics and electromagnetics.
