- 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;
}
Description
Calculates the spatial minimum and maximum extents of a field
The extents are derived from the bound box limits after identifying
the locations where field values exceed the user-supplied threshold
value.
Usage
Example of function object specification:
fieldExtents1
{
type fieldExtents;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
...
writeToFile yes;
log yes;
fields (alpha);
threshold 0.5;
patches ();
}
Where the entries comprise:
Property | Description | Required | Default
type | type name: fieldExtents | yes |
writeToFile | write extents data to file | no | yes
log | write extents data to standard output | no | yes
internalField | Process the internal field | no | yes
threshold | Field value to identify extents boundary | yes |
referencePosition | Reference position | no | (0 0 0)
fields | list of fields to process | yes |
patches | list of patches to process | no | <all>
Output data is written to the file \<timeDir\>/fieldExtents.dat
Note
For non-scalar fields, the magnitude of the field is employed and
compared to the threshold value.
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.
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.
