- in most cases this eliminates manually calculation of circumferential
points.
TUT: improve parameterization of sphere blockMeshDict
- allow separate parameterization of radius, ratio of inner to outer,
and the number of divisions in x/y/z and radial directions
- timeVaryingUniformFixedValue -> uniformFixedValue
- allows a variety of functions (eg, coded, expressions, tables, ...)
- more similarity to finiteVolume patch type
STYLE: remove unused timeVarying... from etc/controlDict
1) Adding LiquidEvapFuchsKnudsen model for lagrangian evaporation.
This models is based on a diffusion type of evaporation/
condensation on particles composed of solution (liquid + solid).
2) Adding modes of calculating the particle rho and volume change.
The new keyword in constantProperties is 'volumeUpdateMethod'
which three options:
a) constantRho
b) constantVolume
c) updateRhoAndVol
The old keyword 'constantVolume' true/face is still valid
3) The entry rho0 is now optional for multicomponent parcels.
If defined , it is used, but if it is not the actual mixture
provided is used to calculate rho0 of the particle.
T0 is still used as initial T and Cp0 is over-written in the
multicomponent cloud but still required.
4) Adding tutorial for evaporation/condensation model
- slipped in with changes to csvTableReader (commit 59ed3ba18d) so
only affects the 2006 version.
- adjust constructor to expect "componentColumns", but also accept
"valueColumns" as 1912 and earlier-compatibility. This not only
fixes the reported bug, but also ensure proper compatibility with
older files.
ENH: use "refColumn" instead of "timeColumn" for csvTableReader
- consistent with the CSV Function1.
Support 'timeColumn' as 1912 and earlier-compatibility.
TUT: remove unused table-reader entry
- related to change c3571b7357 (does not affect 1912 or older).
Remnant check for data() should have used valid() method instead.
TUT: add fluxSummary cellZoneAndDirection to angledDuct/implicit
- the earlier implementation of externally controlled lumped point
motion (see merge request !120 and OpenFOAM-v1706 release notes) was
conceived for the motion of simple structures such as buildings or
simple beams. The motion controller was simply defined in terms of
an orientation axis and divisions along that axis.
To include complex structures, multiple motion controllers are
defined in terms of support points and connectivity.
The points can have additional node Ids associated with them, which
makes it easier to map to/from FEA models.
OLD system/lumpedPointMovement specification
--------------------------------------------
//- Reference axis for the locations
axis (0 0 1);
//- Locations of the lumped points
locations (0 0.05 .. 0.5);
NEW system/lumpedPointMovement specification
--------------------------------------------
// Locations of the lumped points
points
(
(0 0 0.00)
(0 0 0.05)
...
(0 0 0.50)
);
//- Connectivity for motion controllers
controllers
{
vertical
{
pointLabels (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10);
}
}
And the controller(s) must be associated with the given
pointDisplacement patch. Eg,
somePatch
{
type lumpedPointDisplacement;
value uniform (0 0 0);
controllers ( vertical ); // <-- NEW
}
TUT: adjust building motion tutorial
- use new controllor definitions
- replace building response file with executable
- add updateControl in dynamicMeshDict for slowly moving structure
- use simpler decomposeParDict in tutorials, several had old
'boilerplate' decomposeParDict
- use simpler libs () format
- update surface sampling to use dictionary format
- Removed some unnecessary dynamicMeshDicts.
- Removed the writeActiveDesignVariables execution from the Allrun
scripts, since it is no longer necessary to execute it before
adjointOptimisationFoam.
- Updated the entries in dynamicMeshDict according to efbc9fc99.
Example usage:
cloudFunctions
{
WeberNumber1
{
type WeberNumber;
}
}
This will calculate and write the Weber number field as a 'standard'
cloud field, available for post-processing alongside other lagrangian
fields in the lagrangian/<cloudName> directory.
- replace ':' scoping with IOobject::scopedName(), which automatically
uses '_' for Windows compilations where the ':' is a meta-character
(drive separator)
- apply similar local change for the momentum function object.

ENH: add generalised log-law type ground-normal inflow boundary conditions for

dry-air, equilibrium and neutral atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) modelling
ENH: remove `zGround` entry, which is now automatically computed
ENH: add `displacement height` entry, `d`
ENH: add generalised atmBoundaryLayerInletOmega boundary condition
ENH: add a verification case for atmBoundaryLayerInlet BCs
DOC: improve atmBoundaryLayerInlet header documentation
BUG: fix value-entry behaviour in atmBoundaryLayerInlet (fixes#1578)
Without this change:
- for serial-parallel computations, if `value` entry is available in
an `atmBoundaryLayerInlet` BC, the theoretical ABL profile expressions
are not computed, and the `value` entry content is used as a profile data
- for parallel computations, if `value` entry is not available, `decomposePar`
could not be executed.
With this change:
- assuming `value` entry is always be present, the use of `value` entry for
the ABL profile specification is determined by a flag `initABL`
- the default value of the optional flag `initABL` is `true`, but whenever
`initABL=true` is executed, `initABL` is overwritten as `false` for the
subsequent runs, so that `value` entry can be safely used.
Thanks Per Jørgensen for the bug report.

TUT: update simpleFoam/turbineSiting tutorial accordingly
STDMD (i.e. Streaming Total Dynamic Mode Decomposition) is a variant of
a data-driven dimensionality reduction method.
STDMD is being used as a mathematical post-processing tool to compute
a set of dominant modes out of a given flow (or dataset) each of which is
associated with a constant frequency and decay rate, so that dynamic
features of a given flow may become interpretable, and tractable.
Among other Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) variants, STDMD is presumed
to provide the general DMD method capabilities alongside economised and
feasible memory and CPU usage.
Please refer to the header file documentation for further details.
ENH: add new STDMD tutorial, pimpleFoam/laminar/cylinder2D
