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.

- The iterator for a HashSet dereferences directly to its key.
- Eg,
for (const label patchi : patchSet)
{
...
}
vs.
forAllConstIter(labelHashSet, patchSet, iter)
{
const label patchi = iter.key();
...
}
- controlled by the the 'printExecutionFormat' InfoSwitch in
etc/controlDict
// Style for "ExecutionTime = " output
// - 0 = seconds (with trailing 's')
// - 1 = day-hh:mm:ss
ExecutionTime = 112135.2 s ClockTime = 113017 s
ExecutionTime = 1-07:08:55.20 ClockTime = 1-07:23:37
- Callable via the new Time::printExecutionTime() method,
which also helps to reduce clutter in the applications.
Eg,
runTime.printExecutionTime(Info);
vs
Info<< "ExecutionTime = " << runTime.elapsedCpuTime() << " s"
<< " ClockTime = " << runTime.elapsedClockTime() << " s"
<< nl << endl;
--
ENH: return elapsedClockTime() and clockTimeIncrement as double
- previously returned as time_t, which is less portable.
- parsing error state only arises from a missing final newline
in the file (which the dnl macro does not capture).
Report with a warning instead of modifying the dnl macro since
we generally wish to know about this anyhow.
- add missing newline to YEqn.H file.
- The bitSet class replaces the old PackedBoolList class.
The redesign provides better block-wise access and reduced method
calls. This helps both in cases where the bitSet may be relatively
sparse, and in cases where advantage of contiguous operations can be
made. This makes it easier to work with a bitSet as top-level object.
In addition to the previously available count() method to determine
if a bitSet is being used, now have simpler queries:
- all() - true if all bits in the addressable range are empty
- any() - true if any bits are set at all.
- none() - true if no bits are set.
These are faster than count() and allow early termination.
The new test() method tests the value of a single bit position and
returns a bool without any ambiguity caused by the return type
(like the get() method), nor the const/non-const access (like
operator[] has). The name corresponds to what std::bitset uses.
The new find_first(), find_last(), find_next() methods provide a faster
means of searching for bits that are set.
This can be especially useful when using a bitSet to control an
conditional:
OLD (with macro):
forAll(selected, celli)
{
if (selected[celli])
{
sumVol += mesh_.cellVolumes()[celli];
}
}
NEW (with const_iterator):
for (const label celli : selected)
{
sumVol += mesh_.cellVolumes()[celli];
}
or manually
for
(
label celli = selected.find_first();
celli != -1;
celli = selected.find_next()
)
{
sumVol += mesh_.cellVolumes()[celli];
}
- When marking up contiguous parts of a bitset, an interval can be
represented more efficiently as a labelRange of start/size.
For example,
OLD:
if (isA<processorPolyPatch>(pp))
{
forAll(pp, i)
{
ignoreFaces.set(i);
}
}
NEW:
if (isA<processorPolyPatch>(pp))
{
ignoreFaces.set(pp.range());
}
- generalize some of the library extensions (.so vs .dylib).
Provide as wmake 'sysFunctions'
- added note about unsupported/incomplete system support
- centralize detection of ThirdParty packages into wmake/ subdirectory
by providing a series of scripts in the spirit of GNU autoconfig.
For example,
have_boost, have_readline, have_scotch, ...
Each of the `have_<package>` scripts will generally provide the
following type of functions:
have_<package> # detection
no_<package> # reset
echo_<package> # echoing
and the following type of variables:
HAVE_<package> # unset or 'true'
<package>_ARCH_PATH # root for <package>
<package>_INC_DIR # include directory for <package>
<package>_LIB_DIR # library directory for <package>
This simplifies the calling scripts:
if have_metis
then
wmake metisDecomp
fi
As well as reducing clutter in the corresponding Make/options:
EXE_INC = \
-I$(METIS_INC_DIR) \
-I../decompositionMethods/lnInclude
LIB_LIBS = \
-L$(METIS_LIB_DIR) -lmetis
Any additional modifications (platform-specific or for an external build
system) can now be made centrally.
- both autoPtr and tmp are defined with an implicit construct from
nullptr (but with explicit construct from a pointer to null).
Thus is it safe to use 'nullptr' when returning an empty autoPtr or tmp.
- when constructing dimensioned fields that are to be zero-initialized,
it is preferrable to use a form such as
dimensionedScalar(dims, Zero)
dimensionedVector(dims, Zero)
rather than
dimensionedScalar("0", dims, 0)
dimensionedVector("zero", dims, vector::zero)
This reduces clutter and also avoids any suggestion that the name of
the dimensioned quantity has any influence on the field's name.
An even shorter version is possible. Eg,
dimensionedScalar(dims)
but reduces the clarity of meaning.
- NB: UniformDimensionedField is an exception to these style changes
since it does use the name of the dimensioned type (instead of the
regIOobject).
- in many cases can just use lookupOrDefault("key", bool) instead of
lookupOrDefault<bool> or lookupOrDefault<Switch> since reading a
bool from an Istream uses the Switch(Istream&) anyhow
STYLE: relocated Switch string names into file-local scope
- eliminate iterators from PackedList since they were unused, had
lower performance than direct access and added unneeded complexity.
- eliminate auto-vivify for the PackedList '[] operator.
The set() method provides any required auto-vivification and
removing this ability from the '[]' operator allows for a lower
when accessing the values. Replaced the previous cascade of iterators
with simpler reference class.
PackedBoolList:
- (temporarily) eliminate logic and addition operators since
these contained partially unclear semantics.
- the new test() method tests the value of a single bit position and
returns a bool without any ambiguity caused by the return type
(like the get() method), nor the const/non-const access (like
operator[] has). The name corresponds to what std::bitset uses.
- more consistent use of PackedBoolList test(), set(), unset() methods
for fewer operation and clearer code. Eg,
if (list.test(index)) ... | if (list[index]) ...
if (!list.test(index)) ... | if (list[index] == 0u) ...
list.set(index); | list[index] = 1u;
list.unset(index); | list[index] = 0u;
- deleted the operator=(const labelUList&) and replaced with a setMany()
method for more clarity about the intended operation and to avoid any
potential inadvertent behaviour.
This class is largely a pre-C++11 holdover. It is now possible to
simply use move construct/assignment directly.
In a few rare cases (eg, polyMesh::resetPrimitives) it has been
replaced by an autoPtr.
Improve alignment of its behaviour with std::unique_ptr
- element_type typedef
- release() method - identical to ptr() method
- get() method to get the pointer without checking and without releasing it.
- operator*() for dereferencing
Method name changes
- renamed rawPtr() to get()
- renamed rawRef() to ref(), removed unused const version.
Removed methods/operators
- assignment from a raw pointer was deleted (was rarely used).
Can be convenient, but uncontrolled and potentially unsafe.
Do allow assignment from a literal nullptr though, since this
can never leak (and also corresponds to the unique_ptr API).
Additional methods
- clone() method: forwards to the clone() method of the underlying
data object with argument forwarding.
- reset(autoPtr&&) as an alternative to operator=(autoPtr&&)
STYLE: avoid implicit conversion from autoPtr to object type in many places
- existing implementation has the following:
operator const T&() const { return operator*(); }
which means that the following code works:
autoPtr<mapPolyMesh> map = ...;
updateMesh(*map); // OK: explicit dereferencing
updateMesh(map()); // OK: explicit dereferencing
updateMesh(map); // OK: implicit dereferencing
for clarity it may preferable to avoid the implicit dereferencing
- prefer operator* to operator() when deferenced a return value
so it is clearer that a pointer is involve and not a function call
etc Eg, return *meshPtr_; vs. return meshPtr_();
- more consistent with STL practices for function classes.
- string::hash function class now operates on std::string rather
than Foam::string since we have now avoided inadvertent use of
string conversion from int in more places.
- use succincter method names that more closely resemble dictionary
and HashTable method names. This improves method name consistency
between classes and also requires less typing effort:
args.found(optName) vs. args.optionFound(optName)
args.readIfPresent(..) vs. args.optionReadIfPresent(..)
...
args.opt<scalar>(optName) vs. args.optionRead<scalar>(optName)
args.read<scalar>(index) vs. args.argRead<scalar>(index)
- the older method names forms have been retained for code compatibility,
but are now deprecated

alphaSuSp.H has to be added in the solver folder in order to make it compatible with the alpha Eq.
