Calculates and outputs the pressure fields p_rgh and ph_rgh based on the
option that was previously hard-coded in the fireFoam solver
Usage
Example of function object specification to calculate hydrostatic pressure:
\verbatim
hydrostaticPressure1
{
type hydrostaticPressure;
libs ("libinitialisationFunctionObjects.so");
...
}
\endverbatim
Where the entries comprise:
\table
Property | Description | Required | Default value
log | Log to standard output | no | yes
p_rgh | Name of p_rgh field | no | p_rgh
ph_rgh | Name of ph_rgh field | no | ph_rgh
pRef | Name of pressure ref field | no | pRef
rho | Name of density field | no | rho
U | Name of velocity field | no | U
gh | Name of gravity*height volume field | no | gh
ghf | Name of gravity*height surface field | no | ghf
nCorrectors | Number of correctors when solving ph_rgh | no | 5
\endtable
Note
Calculates the hydrostatic pressure on construction/re-initialisation;
the execute and write functions are not used.
- generalize identity matrix constructors for non-scalar types
- add constructors using labelPair for the row/column sizing information.
For a SquareMatrix, this provides an unambiguous parameter resolution.
- reuse assignment operators
STYLE: adjust matrix comments
- when windows portable executables (.exe or .dll) files are loaded,
their dependent libraries not fully loaded. For OpenFOAM this means
that the static constructors which are responsible for populating
run-time selection tables are not triggered, and most of the run-time
selectable models will simply not be available.
Possible Solution
=================
Avoid this problem by defining an additional library symbol such as
the following:
extern "C" void libName_Load() {}
in the respective library, and tag this symbol as 'unresolved' for
the linker so that it will attempt to resolve it at run-time by
loading the known libraries until it finds it. The link line would
resemble the following:
-L/some/path -llibName -ulibName_Load
Pros:
- Allows precise control of forced library loading
Cons:
- Moderately verbose adjustment of some source files (even with macro
wrapping for the declaration).
- Adjustment of numerous Make/options files and somewhat ad hoc
in nature.
- Requires additional care when implementing future libraries and/or
applications.
- This is the solution taken by the symscape patches (Richard Smith)
Possible Solution
=================
Avoid this problem by simply force loading all linked libraries.
This is done by "scraping" the information out of the respective
Make/options file (after pre-processing) and using that to define
the library list that will be passed to Foam::dlOpen() at run-time.
Pros:
- One-time (very) minimal adjustment of the sources and wmake toolchain
- Automatically applies to future applications
Cons:
- Possibly larger memory footprint of application (since all dependent
libraries are loaded).
- Possible impact on startup time (while loading libraries)
- More sensitive to build failures. Since the options files are
read and modified based on the existence of the dependent
libraries as a preprocessor step, if the libraries are initially
unavailable for the first attempt at building the application,
the dependencies will be inaccurate for later (successful) builds.
- This is solution taken by the bluecape patches (Bruno Santos)
Adopted Solution
================
The approach taken by Bruno was adopted in a modified form since
this appears to be the most easily maintained.
Additional Notes
================
It is always possible to solve this problem by defining a corresponding
'libs (...)' entry in the case system/controlDict, which forces a dlOpen
of the listed libraries. This is obviously less than ideal for large-scale
changes, but can work to resolve an individual problem.
The peldd utility (https://github.com/gsauthof/pe-util), which is
also packaged as part of MXE could provide yet another alternative.
Like ldd it can be used to determine the library dependencies of
binaries or libraries. This information could be used to define an
additional load layer for Windows.
- reduces some dictionary clutter and probably looks less confusing
than having an ending that may not correspond to the current OS.
Eg, "fvOptions" instead of "libfvOptions.so", "libfvOptions.dylib" ...
- convenience dlOpen method for multiple files
- add iterators, begin/end, empty() methods for STL behaviour.
Use standard algorithms where possible
* std::fill, std::copy
* std::min_element, std::max_element
- access methods consistent with other OpenFOAM containers:
* data(), cdata(), uniform()
- Use ListPolicy to impose output line breaks
- Can recover matrix storage for re-use elsewhere.
For example, to populate values with 2D i-j addressing and later
release it as flat linear storage.
- construct/assign moveable
- added minMax() function for Matrix
- additional inplace +=, -=, *=, /= operations
- add named methods at() and rowData() to Matrix.
Allows a better distinction between linear and row-based addressing
- low-level matrix solve on List/UList instead of Field
- can be used to check the validity of input values.
Example:
dict.getCheck<label>("nIters", greaterOp1<label>(0));
dict.getCheck<scalar>("relax", scalarMinMax::zero_one());
- use 'get' prefix for more regular dictionary methods.
Eg, getOrDefault() as alternative to lookupOrDefault()
- additional ops for convenient construction of predicates
ENH: make dictionary writeOptionalEntries integer
- allow triggering of Fatal if default values are used
ENH: additional scalarRange static methods: ge0, gt0, zero_one
- use GREAT instead of VGREAT for internal placeholders
- additional MinMax static methods: gt, le
- adjust naming of quaternion 'rotationSequence' to be 'eulerOrder'
to reflect its purpose.
- provide rotation matrices directly for these rotation orders in
coordinateRotations::euler for case in which the rotation tensor
is required but not a quaternion.
Modified revert of commit 6c6f777bd5.
- The "alphaContactAngleFvPatchScalarField" occurs in several
places in the code base:
- as abstract class for two-phase properties
- in various multiphase solvers
To resolve potential linking conflicts, renamed the abstract class
as "alphaContactAngleTwoPhaseFvPatchScalarField" instead.
This permits potential linking of two-phase and multi-phase
libraries without symbol conflicts and has no effect on concrete
uses of two-phase alphaContactAngle boudary conditions.
- support move insert/set and emplace insertion.
These adjustments can be used for improved memory efficiency, and
allow hash tables of non-copyable objects (eg, std::unique_ptr).
- extend special HashTable output treatment to include pointer-like
objects such as autoPtr and unique_ptr.
ENH: HashTable::at() method with checking. Fatal if entry does not exist.
- for codedFunctionObject and CodedSource the main code snippets
were not included in the SHA1 calculation, which meant that many
changes would not be noticed and no new library would be compiled.
As a workaround, a dummy 'code' entry could be used solely for the
purposes of generating a SHA1, but this is easily forgotten.
We now allow tracking of the dynamicCodeContext for the coded
objects and append to the SHA1 hasher with specific entries.
This should solve the previous misbehaviour.
We additionally add information about the ordering of the code
sections. Suppose we have a coded function object (all code
segments are optional) with the following:
codeExecute "";
codeWrite #{ Info<< "Called\n"; #};
which we subsequently change to this:
codeExecute #{ Info<< "Called\n"; #};
codeWrite "";
If the code strings are simply concatenated together, the SHA1 hashes
will be identical. We thus 'salt' with their semantic locations,
choosing tags that are unlikely to occur within the code strings
themselves.
- simplify the coded templates with constexpr for the SHA1sum
information.
- Correct the CodedSource to use 'codeConstrain' instead of
'codeSetValue' for consistency with the underlying functions.
