XiEngineFoam is a premixed/partially-premixed combustion engine solver which
exclusively uses the Xi flamelet combustion model.
engineFoam is a general engine solver for inhomogeneous combustion with or
without spray supporting run-time selection of the chemistry-based combustion
model.
Standard crank-connecting rod and the new free-piston kinematics motion options
are provides, others can easily be added.

ENH: compressibleInterFoam family: merged two-phase momentum stress modelling from compressibleInterPhaseTransportFoam
The new momentum stress model selector class
compressibleInterPhaseTransportModel is now used to select between the options:
Description
Transport model selection class for the compressibleInterFoam family of
solvers.
By default the standard mixture transport modelling approach is used in
which a single momentum stress model (laminar, non-Newtonian, LES or RAS) is
constructed for the mixture. However if the \c simulationType in
constant/turbulenceProperties is set to \c twoPhaseTransport the alternative
Euler-Euler two-phase transport modelling approach is used in which separate
stress models (laminar, non-Newtonian, LES or RAS) are instantiated for each
of the two phases allowing for different modeling for the phases.
Mixture and two-phase momentum stress modelling is now supported in
compressibleInterFoam, compressibleInterDyMFoam and compressibleInterFilmFoam.
The prototype compressibleInterPhaseTransportFoam solver is no longer needed and
has been removed.
To unsure fvOptions are instantiated for post-processing createFvOptions.H must
be included in createFields.H rather than in the solver directly.

BUG: porousSimpleFoam: moved createFvOptions.H into createFields.H for -postProcess option
Resolves bug-report https://bugs.openfoam.org/view.php?id=2733
BUG: solvers: Moved fvOption construction into createFields.H for post-processing
This ensures that the fvOptions are constructed for the -postProcessing option
so that functionObjects which process fvOption data operate correctly in this
mode.
The combined solver includes the most advanced and general functionality from
each solver including:
Continuous phase
Lagrangian multiphase parcels
Optional film
Continuous and Lagrangian phase reactions
Radiation
Strong buoyancy force support by solving for p_rgh
The reactingParcelFoam and reactingParcelFilmFoam tutorials have been combined
and updated.
Mixture molecular weight is now evaluated in heThermo like everything
else, relying on the low level specie mixing rules. Units have also been
corrected.
SpecieMixture: Pure virtual definition for W to prevent Clang warning
In this version of compressibleInterFoam separate stress models (laminar,
non-Newtonian, LES or RAS) are instantiated for each of the two phases allowing
for completely different modeling for the phases.
e.g. in the climbingRod tutorial case provided a Newtonian laminar model is
instantiated for the air and a Maxwell non-Newtonian model is instantiated for
the viscoelastic liquid. To stabilize the Maxwell model in regions where the
liquid phase-fraction is 0 the new symmTensorPhaseLimitStabilization fvOption is
applied.
Other phase stress modeling combinations are also possible, e.g. the air may be
turbulent but the liquid laminar and an RAS or LES model applied to the air
only. However, to stabilize this combination a suitable fvOption would need to
be applied to the turbulence properties where the air phase-fraction is 0.

slip
The old behaviour assumed that the no-slip value was zero. This has
been extended to enable the user to supply a refValue - the value at
zero slip.
This was similar to the mixedFixedValueSlipFvPatchField behaviour in the
rhoCentralFoam library - now deprecated in favour of the templated
partialSlip version.
for consistency with reactingTwoPhaseEulerFoam and to ensure correct operation
of models requiring formal boundedness of phase-fractions.

Community contribution from Johan Roenby, DHI
IsoAdvector is a geometric Volume-of-Fluid method for advection of a
sharp interface between two incompressible fluids. It works on both
structured and unstructured meshes with no requirements on cell shapes.
IsoAdvector is as an alternative choice for the interface compression
treatment with the MULES limiter implemented in the interFoam family
of solvers.
The isoAdvector concept and code was developed at DHI and was funded
by a Sapere Aude postdoc grant to Johan Roenby from The Danish Council
for Independent Research | Technology and Production Sciences (Grant-ID:
DFF - 1337-00118B - FTP).
Co-funding is also provided by the GTS grant to DHI from the Danish
Agency for Science, Technology and Innovation.
The ideas behind and performance of the isoAdvector scheme is
documented in:

interface advection. R. Soc. open sci. 3: 160405.
