- eliminate iterators from PackedList since they were unused, had
lower performance than direct access and added unneeded complexity.
- eliminate auto-vivify for the PackedList '[] operator.
The set() method provides any required auto-vivification and
removing this ability from the '[]' operator allows for a lower
when accessing the values. Replaced the previous cascade of iterators
with simpler reference class.
PackedBoolList:
- (temporarily) eliminate logic and addition operators since
these contained partially unclear semantics.
- the new test() method tests the value of a single bit position and
returns a bool without any ambiguity caused by the return type
(like the get() method), nor the const/non-const access (like
operator[] has). The name corresponds to what std::bitset uses.
- more consistent use of PackedBoolList test(), set(), unset() methods
for fewer operation and clearer code. Eg,
if (list.test(index)) ... | if (list[index]) ...
if (!list.test(index)) ... | if (list[index] == 0u) ...
list.set(index); | list[index] = 1u;
list.unset(index); | list[index] = 0u;
- deleted the operator=(const labelUList&) and replaced with a setMany()
method for more clarity about the intended operation and to avoid any
potential inadvertent behaviour.
The old separate incompressible and compressible libraries have been removed.
Most of the commonly used RANS and LES models have been upgraded to the
new framework but there are a few missing which will be added over the
next few days, in particular the realizable k-epsilon model. Some of
the less common incompressible RANS models have been introduced into the
new library instantiated for incompressible flow only. If they prove to
be generally useful they can be templated for compressible and
multiphase application.
The Spalart-Allmaras DDES and IDDES models have been thoroughly
debugged, removing serious errors concerning the use of S rather than
Omega.
The compressible instances of the models have been augmented by a simple
backward-compatible eddyDiffusivity model for thermal transport based on
alphat and alphaEff. This will be replaced with a separate run-time
selectable thermal transport model framework in a few weeks.
For simplicity and ease of maintenance and further development the
turbulent transport and wall modeling is based on nut/nuEff rather than
mut/muEff for compressible models so that all forms of turbulence models
can use the same wall-functions and other BCs.
All turbulence model selection made in the constant/turbulenceProperties
dictionary with RAS and LES as sub-dictionaries rather than in separate
files which added huge complexity for multiphase.
All tutorials have been updated so study the changes and update your own
cases by comparison with similar cases provided.
Sorry for the inconvenience in the break in backward-compatibility but
this update to the turbulence modeling is an essential step in the
future of OpenFOAM to allow more models to be added and maintained for a
wider range of cases and physics. Over the next weeks and months more
turbulence models will be added of single and multiphase flow, more
additional sub-models and further development and testing of existing
models. I hope this brings benefits to all OpenFOAM users.

At the specie level:
hs = sensible enthalpy
ha = absolute (what was total) enthalpy
es = sensibly internal energy
ea = absolute (what was total) internal energy
At top-level
Rename total enthalpy h -> ha
Rename sensible enthalpy hs -> h
Combined h, hs, e and es thermo packages into a single structure.
Thermo packages now provide "he" function which may return either enthalpy or
internal energy, sensible or absolute according to the run-time selected form
alphaEff now returns the effective diffusivity for the particular energy which
the thermodynamics package is selected to solve for.

- change system/controlDict to use functions {..} instead of functions (..);
* This is internally more efficient
- fixed formatting of system/controlDict functions entry
- pedantic change: use 'return 0' instead of 'return(0)' in the applications,
since return is a C/C++ keyword, not a function.
- can use 'XX.empty()' instead of 'XX.size() == 0', 'XX.size() < 1' or
'XX.size() <= 0' or for simpler coding.
It also has the same number of characters as '!XX.size()' and /might/ be
more readable
- many size checking had 'XX.size() > 0', 'XX.size() != 0', or 'XX.size() >= 1'
when a simple 'XX.size()' suffices
