Refinement:
-----------
// Optionally avoid patch merging - keeps hexahedral cells
// (to be used with automatic refinement/unrefinement)
//mergePatchFaces off;
// Optional multiple locationsInMesh with corresponding optional cellZone
// (automatically generates faceZones inbetween)
locationsInMesh
(
((-0.09 -0.039 -0.049) bottomAir) // cellZone bottomAir
((-0.09 0.009 -0.049) topAir) // cellZone topAir
);
// Optional faceType and patchType specification for these faceZones
faceZoneControls
{
bottomAir_to_topAir
{
faceType baffle;
}
}
/ Optional checking of 'bleeding' of mesh through a specifying a locations
// outside the mesh
locationsOutsideMesh ((0 0 0)(12.3 101.17 3.98));
// Improved refinement: refine all cells with all (or all but one) sides refined
// Improved refinement: refine all cells with opposing faces with different
// refinement level. These cells can happen on multiply curved surfaces.
// Default on, can be switched off with
//interfaceRefine false;
Snapping
--------
// Optional smoothing of points at refinement interfaces. This will reduce
// the non-orthogonality at refinement interfaces.
//nSmoothInternal $nSmoothPatch;
Layering
--------
// Layers can be added to patches or to any side of a faceZone.
// (Any faceZone internally gets represented as two patches)
// The angle to merge patch faces can be set independently of the
// featureAngle. This is especially useful for large feature angles
// Default is the same as the featureAngle.
//mergePatchFacesAngle 45;
// Optional mesh shrinking type 'displacementMotionSolver'. It uses any
// displacementMotionSolver, e.g. displacementSBRStress
// (default is the medial-axis algorithm, 'displacementMedialAxis')
//meshShrinker displacementMotionSolver;
//- Return the set of times selected based on the argList options
// including support for \b -newTimes in which times are selected
// if the file <fName> does not exist in the time directory.
// Also set the runTime to the first instance or the
// \c constant/ directory if no instances are specified or available
static instantList select

This is experimental functionality and currently on test in the yPlus
post-processing utility.
Command-line option handling:
+ If -all specified or no refineMeshDict exists or, refine all cells
+ If -dict <file> specified refine according to <file>
+ If refineMeshDict exists refine according to refineMeshDict
When the refinement or all cells is selected apply 3D refinement for 3D
cases and 2D refinement for 2D cases.
For multi-region cases the default location of blockMeshDict is now system/<region name>
If the blockMeshDict is not found in system then the constant directory
is also checked providing backward-compatibility
