RunFunctions: Added "isTest()" argument parsing function
tutorials: Updated Allrun scripts to propagate the "-test" option
tutorials: Removed the lower Alltest scripts and updated the Allrun to
use the "isTest()" function to handle test-specific operation
The boundary conditions of HbyA are now constrained by the new "constrainHbyA"
function which applies the velocity boundary values for patches for which the
velocity cannot be modified by assignment and pressure extrapolation is
not specified via the new
"fixedFluxExtrapolatedPressureFvPatchScalarField".
The new function "constrainPressure" sets the pressure gradient
appropriately for "fixedFluxPressureFvPatchScalarField" and
"fixedFluxExtrapolatedPressureFvPatchScalarField" boundary conditions to
ensure the evaluated flux corresponds to the known velocity values at
the boundary.
The "fixedFluxPressureFvPatchScalarField" boundary condition operates
exactly as before, ensuring the correct flux at fixed-flux boundaries by
compensating for the body forces (gravity in particular) with the
pressure gradient.
The new "fixedFluxExtrapolatedPressureFvPatchScalarField" boundary
condition may be used for cases with or without body-forces to set the
pressure gradient to compensate not only for the body-force but also the
extrapolated "HbyA" which provides a second-order boundary condition for
pressure. This is useful for a range a problems including impinging
flow, extrapolated inlet conditions with body-forces or for highly
viscous flows, pressure-induced separation etc. To test this boundary
condition at walls in the motorBike tutorial case set
lowerWall
{
type fixedFluxExtrapolatedPressure;
}
motorBikeGroup
{
type fixedFluxExtrapolatedPressure;
}
Currently the new extrapolated pressure boundary condition is supported
for all incompressible and sub-sonic compressible solvers except those
providing implicit and tensorial porosity support. The approach will be
extended to cover these solvers and options in the future.
Note: the extrapolated pressure boundary condition is experimental and
requires further testing to assess the range of applicability,
stability, accuracy etc.

change D in constant/fvOptions:
// D 100; // Very little blockage
// D 200; // Some blockage but steady flow
// D 500; // Slight waviness in the far wake

Function1 is an abstract base-class of run-time selectable unary
functions which may be composed of other Function1's allowing the user
to specify complex functions of a single scalar variable, e.g. time.
The implementations need not be a simple or continuous functions;
interpolated tables and polynomials are also supported. In fact form of
mapping between a single scalar input and a single primitive type output
is supportable.
The primary application of Function1 is in time-varying boundary
conditions, it also used for other functions of time, e.g. injected mass
is spray simulations but is not limited to functions of time.
