- 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.
Uncommenting the patches provides a convenient way to use the patches in the background mesh
to define the external boundary of the final mesh. Replaces previous setup with a separate
blockMeshDict.extPatches file.
so that the specification of the name and dimensions are optional in property dictionaries.
Update tutorials so that the name of the dimensionedScalar property is
no longer duplicated but optional dimensions are still provided and are
checked on read.
The templates include a stategy to simplify meshing with snappyHexMesh,
particularly to help generate an initial mesh quickly that can subsequently be
improved. The templates are setup to enable rapid initial simulations, typically
with simpleFoam. The initial templates cover simple inflow-outflow and closed
domains, including rotating geometry, and an example axisymmetric flow. For
more details, consult the README file accompanying each template case.
The cases are located in $FOAM_ETC/templates
