fvOptions are transferred to the database on construction using
fv::options::New which returns a reference. The same function can be
use for construction and lookup so that fvOptions are now entirely
demand-driven.
The abstract base-classes for fvOptions now reside in the finiteVolume
library simplifying compilation and linkage. The concrete
implementations of fvOptions are still in the single monolithic
fvOptions library but in the future this will be separated into smaller
libraries based on application area which may be linked at run-time in
the same manner as functionObjects.
LTS is selected by the ddt scheme e.g. in the
tutorials/multiphase/interFoam/ras/DTCHull case:
ddtSchemes
{
default localEuler rDeltaT;
}
LTSInterFoam is no longer needed now that interFoam includes LTS
support.
fvOptions does not have the appropriate structure to support MRF as it
is based on option selection by user-specified fields whereas MRF MUST
be applied to all velocity fields in the particular solver. A
consequence of the particular design choices in fvOptions made it
difficult to support MRF for multiphase and it is easier to support
frame-related and field related options separately.
Currently the MRF functionality provided supports only rotations but
the structure will be generalized to support other frame motions
including linear acceleration, SRF rotation and 6DoF which will be
run-time selectable.
Allows the specification of a reference height, for example the height
of the free-surface in a VoF simulation, which reduces the range of p_rgh.
hRef is a uniformDimensionedScalarField specified via the constant/hRef
file, equivalent to the way in which g is specified, so that it can be
looked-up from the database. For example see the constant/hRef file in
the DTCHull LTSInterFoam and interDyMFoam cases.
