- the internal data are contiguous so can broadcast size and internals
directly without an intermediate stream.
ENH: split out broadcast time for profilingPstream information
STYLE: minor Pstream cleanup
- UPstream::commsType_ from protected to private, since it already has
inlined noexcept getters/setters that should be used.
- don't pass unused/unneed tag into low-level MPI reduction templates.
Document where tags are not needed
- had Pstream::broadcast instead of UPstream::broadcast in internals
- now largely encapsulated using PstreamBuffers methods,
which makes it simpler to centralize and maintain
- avoid building intermediate structures when sending data,
remove unused methods/data
TUT: parallel version of depthCharge2D
STYLE: minor update in ProcessorTopology
- this can be used to apply a uniform field level to remove from
a sampled field. For example,
fieldLevel
{
"p.*" 1e5; // Absolute -> gauge [Pa]
T 273.15; // [K] -> [C]
U #eval{ 10/sqrt(3) }; // Uniform mag(U)=10
}
After the fieldLevel has been removed, any fieldScale is applied.
For example
fieldScale
{
"p.*" 0.01; // [Pa] -> [mbar]
}
The fieldLevel for vector and tensor fields may still need some
further refinement.
- when used with *any* alphaField and normalised (the usual case)
would largely give a 0-1 corresponding to the min/max of the first
component, but could also yield negative values.
- if the alpha field corresponds identically to colour field, it is
readily possible to combine as into RGBA sequences. However, if the
fields are different it potentially means referencing an opacity
field that has not yet been sampled. This impedes using the format
for a streaming sampler without additional overhead and/or rewriting
the alpha channel later.
- supports sampling/probing of values to obtain min/max/average/size
at execution intervals without writing any output or generating
output directories.
- 'verbose' option for additional output
The parcel initial velocity can now be set using the new `velocityType`
entry, taking one of the following options:
- fixedValue : (default) same as earlier versions, requires U0
- patchValue : velocity set to seed patch face value
- zeroGradient : velocity set to seed patch face adjacent cell value
Example usage:
model1
{
type patchInjection;
massTotal 1;
SOI 0;
parcelBasisType mass;
patch cylinder;
duration 10;
parcelsPerSecond 100;
velocityType patchValue;
//velocityType zeroGradient;
//U0 (-10 0 0);
flowRateProfile constant 1;
sizeDistribution
{
type normal;
normalDistribution
{
expectation 1e-3;
variance 1e-4;
minValue 1e-5;
maxValue 2e-3;
}
}
}

The turbulentTemperatureCoupledBaffleMixed boundary condition
has been superseded by the turbulentTemperatureRadCoupledMixed condition
TUT: injectorPipe: remove an unused entry
TUT: waveMakerFlap: remove uncompressed entry
- provides a simple means of defining/modifying fields. For example,
```
<name1>
{
type exprField;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
field pTotal;
expression "p + 0.5*(rho*magSqr(U))";
dimensions [ Pa ];
}
```
It is is also possible to modify an existing field.
For example, to modify the previous one.
```
<name2>
{
type exprField;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
field pTotal;
action modify;
// Static pressure only in these regions
fieldMask
#{
(mag(pos()) < 0.05) && (pos().y() > 0)
|| cellZone(inlet)
#};
expression "p";
}
```
To use as a simple post-process calculator, simply avoid storing the
result and only generate on write:
```
<name2>
{
store false;
executionControl none;
writeControl writeTime;
...
}
```
- literal lookups only for expression strings
- code reduction for setExprFields.
- changed keyword "condition" to "fieldMask" (option -field-mask).
This is a better description of its purpose and avoids possible
naming ambiguities with functionObject triggers (for example)
if we apply similar syntax elsewhere.
BUG: erroneous check in volumeExpr::parseDriver::isResultType()
- not triggered since this method is not used anywhere
(may remove in future version)
- this refines commit c233961d45, which added prefix scoping.
Default is now off (v2106 behaviour).
The 'useNamePrefix' keyword can be specified on a per function basis
or at the top-level of "functions".
```
functions
{
errors warn;
useNamePrefix true;
func1
{
type ...;
useNamePrefix false;
}
func2
{
type ...;
// Uses current default for useNamePrefix
}
}
```
- marks if the value is considered to be independent of 'x'.
Propagate into PatchFunction1 instead ad hoc checks there.
- adjust method name in PatchFunction1 to 'whichDb()' to reflect
final changes in Function1 method names.
ENH: add a Function1 'none' placeholder function
- This is principally useful for interfaces that expect a Function1
but where it is not necessarily used by a particular submodel.
TUT: update Function1 creation to use objectRegistry
- use `#word` to concatenate, expand content with the resulting string
being treated as a word token. Can be used in dictionary or
primitive context.
In dictionary context, it fills the gap for constructing dictionary
names on-the-fly. For example,
```
#word "some_prefix_solverInfo_${application}"
{
type solverInfo;
libs (utilityFunctionObjects);
...
}
```
The '#word' directive will automatically squeeze out non-word
characters. In the block content form, it will also strip out
comments. This means that this type of content should also work:
```
#word {
some_prefix_solverInfo
/* Appended with application name (if defined) */
${application:+_} // Use '_' separator
${application} // The application
}
{
type solverInfo;
libs (utilityFunctionObjects);
...
}
```
This is admittedly quite ugly, but illustrates its capabilities.
- use `#message` to report expanded string content to stderr.
For example,
```
T
{
solver PBiCG;
preconditioner DILU;
tolerance 1e-10;
relTol 0;
#message "using solver: $solver"
}
```
Only reports on the master node.
