Reduce the number of phaseSystems libraries:
- phaseSystems previously had a number of smaller libraries to provide
interface and model properties, etc. This potential flexibility was
never actually used anywhere, but causes cyclic dependencies between
phaseSystem and the models (and turbulence) that causes extreme
difficulty for mingw linking (issue #1238).
- libincompressibleMultiphaseSystems
- removed: libmassTransferModels
- libmultiphaseSystem
- removed: libcompressibleMultiphaseEulerianInterfacialModels
- libreactingMultiphaseSystem
- removed: libreactingPhaseSystem
- removed: libreactingEulerianFvPatchFields
- removed: libreactingEulerianInterfacialCompositionModels
- removed: libreactingEulerianInterfacialModels
- removed: libmultiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels
- libreactingTwoPhaseSystem
- removed: libreactingPhaseSystem
- removed: libreactingEulerianFvPatchFields
- removed: libreactingEulerianInterfacialCompositionModels
- removed: libreactingEulerianInterfacialModels
Avoid duplicate symbol for phaseCompressibleTurbulenceModels
Common turbulence models are defined in libreactingMultiphaseSystem,
and libmultiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels is now redundant.
The libtwoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels extends the common models
for reactingTwoPhaseSystem.
- with '&&' conditions, often better to check for non-null autoPtr
first (it is cheap)
- check as bool instead of valid() method for cleaner code, especially
when the wrapped item itself has a valid/empty or good.
Also when handling multiple checks.
Now
if (ptr && ptr->valid())
if (ptr1 || ptr2)
instead
if (ptr.valid() && ptr->valid())
if (ptr1.valid() || ptr2.valid())
1) Implementation of the compressibleIsoInterFOam solver
2) Implementation of a new PLIC interpolation scheme.
3) New tutorials associated with the solvers
This implementation was carried out by Henning Scheufler (DLR) and Johan
Roenby (DHI), following :

The integration of the code was carried out by Andy Heather and Sergio
Ferraris from OpenCFD Ltd.
The phase systems tables for multiphase solvers create conflict
between each other as they are defined in the same namespace and using
similar class names.
Therefore a special htc function object for reactingEulerSolver was
added (reactingEulerHtcModel), located under
src/phaseSystemModels/reactingEulerFoam/functionObjects/
This commit includes the following:
- Relocate solvers/reactingEulerFoam functionObjects to
src/phaseSystemModels
- Remove links for fieldFunctionObject to multiphase libs to avoid
conflicts
- New FO for htc for reactingEulerFoam called reactingEulerHtcModel
- previously introduced `getOrDefault` as a dictionary _get_ method,
now complete the transition and use it everywhere instead of
`lookupOrDefault`. This avoids mixed usage of the two methods that
are identical in behaviour, makes for shorter names, and promotes
the distinction between "lookup" access (ie, return a token stream,
locate and return an entry) and "get" access (ie, the above with
conversion to concrete types such as scalar, label etc).
- Favour use of argList methods that are more similar to dictionary
method names with the aim of reducing the cognitive load.
* Silently deprecate two-parameter get() method in favour of the
more familiar getOrDefault.
* Silently deprecate opt() method in favour of get()
These may be verbosely deprecated in future versions.
multiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels and twoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels
add models to the same table TurbulenceModel. These two libs were removed
from libreactingPhaseSystem which created the conflict.
The multiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels was added to
reactingMultiPhaseEulerFoam solver and twoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels to
twoPhaseReactingEulerFoam solver
The FO heatTransferCoeffs for libfieldFunctionObjects needs
twoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels.
These change avoids linking conflict from multiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels
and twoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels being linked in the same lib.
- adds into the include-quoted search list instead the general (-Idir)
search list.
* makes it less subject to ordering (since it will now generally be
searched first) and makes it less subject to how duplicate removal
is implemented. In some compilers (#1627), the last instance of
a duplicate directory would be used and not the first instance.
* removes clutter in some Make/options files
COMP: add missing linkage libraries
1) Add interfaceHeatResistance model to icoReactingMultiphaseInterFoam
This model uses a spread source for the continuity Eq.
It is recommended for cases with good mesh resolution.
2) Adding iso-surface type of calculation for the interface for
the kineticGasEvaporation model
3) Add switch for option to take into account volume change
4) Add poolEvaporation tutorial
1) Adding interfaceHeight FO
2) Adding interfaceHeatResistance mass transfer model to
interCondensatingEvaporatingFoam with spread source approach
3) Reworking framework for icoReactingMultiphaseInterFoam
The adjoint library is enhanced with new functionality enabling
automated shape optimisation loops. A parameterisation scheme based on
volumetric B-Splines is introduced, the control points of which act as
the design variables in the optimisation loop [1, 2]. The control
points of the volumetric B-Splines boxes can be defined in either
Cartesian or cylindrical coordinates.
The entire loop (solution of the flow and adjoint equations, computation
of sensitivity derivatives, update of the design variables and mesh) is
run within adjointOptimisationFoam. A number of methods to update the
design variables are implemented, including popular Quasi-Newton methods
like BFGS and methods capable of handling constraints like loop using
the SQP or constraint projection.

- Allows user-defined control of when the mesh motion occurs,
which can be especially useful in situations where the mesh motion
is much slower than any of the fluid physics.
For example, in constant/dynamicMeshDict:
updateControl runTime;
updateInterval 0.5;
to have mesh motion triggered every 1/2 second.
Note that the _exact_ time that the mesh motion actually occurs may
be slightly differently since the "runTime" triggering is fuzzy in
nature. It will trigger when the threshold has been crossed, which
will depend on the current time-step size.
