- changed the sectorCoeffs keyword to 'point' from 'axisPt'
for more similarity with other dictionaries.
Continue to accept 'axisPt' for compatibility.
- helps reduce clutter in the topoSetDict files.
Caveats when using this.
The older specification styles using "name" will conflict with the
set name. Eg,
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
sourceInfo
{
name inlet;
}
}
would flattened to the following
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
name inlet;
}
which overwrites the "name" used for the faceSet.
The solution is to use the updated syntax:
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
patch inlet;
}
- old 'DELETE' enum was easily confused with 'REMOVE', which removes
the set, not the elements from the set.
- provide corresponding subtractSet() method
STYLE: HashSet set/unset instead of insert/erase methods in topoSetSource
- simplifies switching to/from bitSet storage
- functionObjectLibs -> libs
- redirectType -> name
- change deprecated writeCompression flags types to Switch.
- cleanup some trailing ';;' from some dictionaries
Support the following expansions when they occur at the start of a
string:
Short-form Equivalent
========= ===========
<etc>/ ~OpenFOAM/ (as per foamEtcFile)
<case>/ $FOAM_CASE/
<constant>/ $FOAM_CASE/constant/
<system>/ $FOAM_CASE/system/
These can be used in fileName expansions to improve clarity and reduce
some typing
"<constant>/reactions" vs "$FOAM_CASE/constant/reactions"
Within decomposeParDict, it is now possible to specify a different
decomposition method, methods coefficients or number of subdomains
for each region individually.
The top-level numberOfSubdomains remains mandatory, since this
specifies the number of domains for the entire simulation.
The individual regions may use the same number or fewer domains.
Any optional method coefficients can be specified in a general
"coeffs" entry or a method-specific one, eg "metisCoeffs".
For multiLevel, only the method-specific "multiLevelCoeffs" dictionary
is used, and is also mandatory.
----
ENH: shortcut specification for multiLevel.
In addition to the longer dictionary form, it is also possible to
use a shorter notation for multiLevel decomposition when the same
decomposition method applies to each level.
- Instead of relying on #inputMode to effect a global change it is now
possible (and recommended) to a temporary change in the inputMode
for the following entry.
#default : provide default value if entry is not already defined
#overwrite : silently remove a previously existing entry
#warn : warn about duplicate entries
#error : error if any duplicate entries occur
#merge : merge sub-dictionaries when possible (the default mode)
This is generally less cumbersome than the switching the global
inputMode. For example to provide a set of fallback values.
#includeIfPresent "user-files"
...
#default value uniform 10;
vs.
#includeIfPresent "user-files"
#inputMode protect
...
value uniform 10;
#inputMode merge // _Assuming_ we actually had this before
These directives can also be used to suppress the normal dictionary
merge semantics:
#overwrite dict { entry val; ... }
- although this has been supported for many years, the tutorials
continued to use "convertToMeters" entry, which is specific to blockMesh.
The "scale" is more consistent with other dictionaries.
ENH:
- ignore "scale 0;" (treat as no scaling) for blockMeshDict,
consistent with use elsewhere.
Adding special alphaCourantNo for overlaping
Adding bounded term to UEq.H for overInterDyMFoam
Changing to NO_WRITE for the cellMask field
Changing twoSimpleRotors tutorial to open domain
Adds overset discretisation to selected physics:
- diffusion : overLaplacianDyMFoam
- incompressible steady : overSimpleFoam
- incompressible transient : overPimpleDyMFoam
- compressible transient: overRhoPimpleDyMFoam
- two-phase VOF: overInterDyMFoam
The overset method chosen is a parallel, fully implicit implementation
whereby the interpolation (from donor to acceptor) is inserted as an
adapted discretisation on the donor cells, such that the resulting matrix
can be solved using the standard linear solvers.
Above solvers come with a set of tutorials, showing how to create and set-up
simple simulations from scratch.
