- use simpler decomposeParDict in tutorials, several had old
'boilerplate' decomposeParDict
- use simpler libs () format
- update surface sampling to use dictionary format
ENH: update libs of etc/caseDicts/postProcess items
ENH: ensure destructor=default
ENH: ensure constness
ENH: ensure no 'copy construct' and 'no copy assignment' exist
TUT: add examples of function objects with full set
of settings into a TUT if unavailable
TUT: update pisoFoam/RAS/cavity tutorial in terms of usage
The PIMPLE option finalOnLastPimpleIterOnly allows the call the Final
solver only in the last PIMPLE loop. The default is false which is
the present behavior.
- base level surface container is now a meshedSurface instead of
a triSurface. This avoid automatic triangulation of surfaces
when they are read, and simplifies the internals.
- sampling types:
* "meshedSurface" (compat: "sampledTriSurfaceMesh")
* "meshedSurfaceNormal" (compat: "sampledTriSurfaceMeshNormal")
- previously the store() method just set the ownedByRegistry flag.
Now ensure that it is indeed registered first.
- support register/store of tmp<> items.
The tmp parameter is not cleared, but changed from PTR to CREF
to allow further use.
The implicit registration allows code simplification using the
GeometricField::New factory method, for example.
Old Code
========
volScalarField* ptr = new volScalarField
(
IOobject
(
fieldName,
mesh.time().timeName(),
mesh,
IOobject::NO_READ,
IOobject::NO_WRITE,
true // Register
),
mesh,
dimless,
zeroGradientFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName
);
ptr->store();
New Code
========
auto tptr = volScalarField::New
(
fieldName,
mesh,
dimless,
zeroGradientFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName
);
regIOobject::store(tptr);
or even
regIOobject::store
(
volScalarField::New
(
fieldName,
mesh,
dimless,
zeroGradientFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName
)
);
- fits better into the general sampling framework, improves flexibilty
and allows code reduction.
ENH: include surface fields on sampledSurfaces that support it
- changed the sectorCoeffs keyword to 'point' from 'axisPt'
for more similarity with other dictionaries.
Continue to accept 'axisPt' for compatibility.
- Now also responds to the contents of the trigger file,
processing action= contents similar to used with external coupling.
Previously it only handled an action that was defined in the
dictionary. With this update, the user can chose a diferent action
simply by echoing the appropriate action string into the trigger
file.
- Uses the user-specified value for outputTemperature:
{
type externalCoupledTemperature;
outputTemperture fluid; // or wall;
}
Otherwises uses 'wall' as a default (for compatibility) and emits a
warning.
The T.out header now reflects the type of output. Eg,
# Values: area Tfluid qDot htc
- tutorials based on squareBend used Default_Boundary_Region explicitly
defined since they predated the defaultPatch renaming (2008).
The name 'Default_Boundary_Region' was for convenience as the default
name when converting to PROSTAR or CCM formation, but can now be
changed to something more generic.
- define wall boundary conditions for squareBend using a general regex
to allow future splitting of wall types by name.
- 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
