Henry Weller 6cae0fdacb reactingFoam::setRDeltaT: Add support for limiting the local time-step by the reaction rates
e.g. in the reactingFoam/laminar/counterFlowFlame2DLTS tutorial:

PIMPLE
{
    momentumPredictor no;
    nOuterCorrectors  1;
    nCorrectors     1;
    nNonOrthogonalCorrectors 0;

    maxDeltaT       1e-2;
    maxCo           1;
    alphaTemp       0.05;
    alphaY          0.05;
    Yref
    {
        O2          0.1;
        ".*"        1;
    }
    rDeltaTSmoothingCoeff 1;
    rDeltaTDampingCoeff 1;
}

will limit the LTS time-step according to the rate of consumption of 'O2'
normalized by the reference mass-fraction of 0.1 and all other species
normalized by the reference mass-fraction of 1.  Additionally the time-step
factor of 'alphaY' is applied to all species.  Only the species specified in the
'Yref' sub-dictionary are included in the LTS limiter and if 'alphaY' is omitted
or set to 1 the reaction rates are not included in the LTS limiter.

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.
