- 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
Adding reflecting fluxes to Solar load radiation model.
Adding functionality to the boundary radiation models and new
place holder for basic wall types such as transparent, opaqueDiffusive,
opaqueReflective,etc.
Changing radiation wall models to run time selectable.
Adding multi-band capabilities to VF model and improving the set up
for using solar loads in VF and fvDOM radiation models.
- although this has been supported for many years, the tutorials
continued to use "convertToMeters" entry, which is specific to blockMesh.
The "scale" is more consistent with other dictionaries.
ENH:
- ignore "scale 0;" (treat as no scaling) for blockMeshDict,
consistent with use elsewhere.
The pitzDaily case uses a lot of mesh grading close to walls and the shear layer.
Prior to v2.4, blockMesh only permitted grading in one direction within a single block,
so the pitzDaily mesh comprised of 13 blocks to accommodate the complex grading pattern.
blockMesh has multi-grading that allows users to divide a block in a given direction and
apply different grading within each division. The mesh generated with blockMesh using
13 blocks has been replaced with a mesh of 5 blocks that use multi-grading. The new
blockMeshDict configuration produces a mesh very similar to the original 13-block mesh.
codedFunctionObject: Added the "codeWrite" entry
for the "write" function for consistency.
The previous method of using the "code" entry for the "write"
function was inconsistent and very confusing.
This changes simplifies the specification of functionObjects in
controlDict and is consistent with the 'libs' option in controlDict to
load special solver libraries.
Support for the old 'functionObjectLibs' name is supported for backward compatibility.
- Avoids the need for the 'OutputFilterFunctionObject' wrapper
- Time-control for execution and writing is now provided by the
'timeControlFunctionObject' which instantiates the processing
'functionObject' and controls its operation.
- Alternative time-control functionObjects can now be written and
selected at run-time without the need to compile wrapped version of
EVERY existing functionObject which would have been required in the
old structure.
- The separation of 'execute' and 'write' functions is now formalized in the
'functionObject' base-class and all derived classes implement the
two functions.
- Unnecessary implementations of functions with appropriate defaults
in the 'functionObject' base-class have been removed reducing
clutter and simplifying implementation of new functionObjects.
- The 'coded' 'functionObject' has also been updated, simplified and tested.
- Further simplification is now possible by creating some general
intermediate classes derived from 'functionObject'.

- .org is the file extension for emacs org-mode as well
- .orig is more to the point (.org isn't always recognized as "original")
- .original is too long, although more consistent with the convention
of source code file naming
Update script contributed by Bruno Santos
Added calls to setFluxRequired for p in all incompressible solvers which
avoids the need to add fluxRequired entries in fvSchemes dictionary.
Will add calls to setFluxRequired to the rest of the solvers.
For multi-region cases the default location of blockMeshDict is now system/<region name>
If the blockMeshDict is not found in system then the constant directory
is also checked providing backward-compatibility
