dotInterpolate interpolates the field and "dots" the resulting face-values with the vector field provided which removes the need to create a temporary field for the interpolate. This reduces the peak storage of OpenFOAM caused by the divergence of the gradient of vector fields, improves memory management and under some conditions decreases run-time. This development is based on a patch contributed by Paul Edwards, Intel.

About OpenFOAM
OpenFOAM is a free, open source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package released by the OpenFOAM Foundation. It has a large user base across most areas of engineering and science, from both commercial and academic organisations. OpenFOAM has an extensive range of features to solve anything from complex fluid flows involving chemical reactions, turbulence and heat transfer, to solid dynamics and electromagnetics.
