- new submodels:
- 'equalBinWidth': groups data into bins of equal widths (previous behaviour)
- 'unequalBinWidth': groups data into bins of unequal widths
- output files per time-step are replaced with a single output file
- silently deprecates the input entries: 'setFormat' and 'formatOptions'
- replaced ad hoc handling of formatOptions with coordSetWriter and
surfaceWriter helpers.
Accompanying this change, it is now possible to specify "default"
settings to be inherited, format-specific settings and have a
similar layering with surface-specific overrides.
- snappyHexMesh now conforms to setFormats
Eg,
formatOptions
{
default
{
verbose true;
format binary;
}
vtk
{
precision 10;
}
}
surfaces
{
surf1
{
...
formatOptions
{
ensight
{
scale 1000;
}
}
}
}
- simplifies construction/inheritance
ENH: add {fa,fv}PatchField::zeroGradientType() static
- can be used to avoid literal "zeroGradient" in places
STYLE: adjust naming of pointPatch runtime selection table
- simply use 'patch' as per fa/fv fields
STYLE: add zero-size guard to patch constraintType(const word&)
When a finite-area case could not find an entry for "lnGradSchemes"
in the "faSchemes" file, the "corrected" scheme has been picked up
by default. Therefore, any changes in "snGradSchemes" entry will not
be read by finite-area models.
- barycentric coordinates in interpolation (instead of x/y/z)
- ease U (velocity) requirement.
Needn't be named in the sampled fields.
- default tracking direction is 'forward'
in cases with more than one primal or adjoint solvers
TUT: removed all occurances of useSolverNameForFields
from the optimisation tutorials since it is now set
automatically.
- update the area-centres processor/processor information as part of
faMesh::init() after all of the global data and geometry data is
setup.
- improve flattenEdgeField helper to properly handle empty patches.
This change removes the false fails when testing edge-centre
redistribution (FULLDEBUG mode).
TUT: add filmPanel (rivulet) tutorial
- include constant/faMesh cleanup (cleanFaMesh) as part of standard
cleanCase
- simplify cleanPolyMesh function to now just warn about old
constant/polyMesh/blockMeshDict but not try to remove anything
- cleanup cellDist.vtu (decomposePar -dry-run) as well
ENH: foamRunTutorials - fallback to Allrun-parallel, Allrun-serial
TUT: call m4 with file argument instead of redirected stdin
TUT: adjust suffixes on decomposeParDict variants
- simpler to write for sampled cutting planes etc.
For example,
slice
{
type cuttingPlane;
point (0 0 0);
normal (0 0 1);
interpolate true;
}
instead of
slice
{
type cuttingPlane;
planeType pointAndNormal;
pointAndNormalDict
{
point (0 0 0);
normal (0 0 1);
}
interpolate true;
}
STYLE: add noexcept to some plane methods
- can specify rotations that are not "axes" in a compact form:
transform
{
origin (0 0 0);
rotation none;
}
transform
{
origin (0 0 0);
rotation axisAngle;
axis (0 0 1);
angle 45;
}
An expanded dictionary form also remains possible:
transform
{
origin (0 0 0);
rotation
{
type axisAngle;
axis (0 0 1);
angle 45;
}
}
STYLE: verbose deprecation for "coordinateRotation" keyword
- the "coordinateRotation" keyword was replaced by the "rotation"
keyword (OpenFOAM-v1812 and later) but was handled silently.
Now elevated to non-silent.
STYLE: alias lookups "axesRotation", "EulerRotation", "STARCDRotation"
- these warn and report the equivalent short form, which aids in
upgrading. Previously had silent lookups.
- can be more intuitive to specify for some cases:
rotation
{
type euler;
order rollPitchYaw;
angles (0 20 45);
}
- refactor starcd rotation to reuse Euler ZXY ordering
(code reduction)
ENH: add -rotate-x, -rotate-y, -rotate-z for transformPoints etc
- easier to specify for simple rotations
- this allows more flexibility when defining the location or intensity
of sources.
For example,
{
type scalarSemiImplicitSource;
volumeMode specific;
selectionMode all;
sources
{
tracer0
{
explicit
{
type exprField;
functions<scalar>
{
square
{
type square;
scale 0.0025;
level 0.0025;
frequency 10;
}
}
expression
#{
(hypot(pos().x() + 0.025, pos().y()) < 0.01)
? fn:square(time())
: 0
#};
}
}
}
}
ENH: SemiImplicitSource: handle "sources" with explicit/implicit entries
- essentially the same as injectionRateSuSp with Su/Sp,
but potentially clearer in purpose.
ENH: add Function1 good() method to define if function can be evaluated
- for example, provides a programmatic means of avoiding the 'none'
function
- Previously, the multiFieldValue function object was limited to operate on
lists of fieldValue function objects.
- Any function objects that generate results can now be used, e.g.
pressureAverage
{
type multiFieldValue;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
operation average;
functions
{
inlet
{
type surfaceFieldValue;
operation areaAverage;
regionType patch;
name inlet;
fields (p);
writeFields no;
writeToFile no;
log no;
resultFields (areaAverage(inlet,p));
}
outlet
{
type surfaceFieldValue;
operation areaAverage;
regionType patch;
name outlet;
fields (p);
writeFields no;
writeToFile no;
log no;
}
average
{
type valueAverage;
functionObject testSample1;
fields (average(p));
writeToFile no;
log no;
}
}
}
TUT: cavity: add an example for the multiFieldValue function object
- can now specify sampled sets as dictionary entries instead of a list
entry.
can now use: sets { ... }
instead of: sets ( ... );
This is similar to sampled surfaces and makes it easier to
manage with dictionary manipulation tools.
TUT: update to use writeTime instead of outputTime
- the internal data are contiguous so can broadcast size and internals
directly without an intermediate stream.
ENH: split out broadcast time for profilingPstream information
STYLE: minor Pstream cleanup
- UPstream::commsType_ from protected to private, since it already has
inlined noexcept getters/setters that should be used.
- don't pass unused/unneed tag into low-level MPI reduction templates.
Document where tags are not needed
- had Pstream::broadcast instead of UPstream::broadcast in internals
- this refines commit c233961d45, which added prefix scoping.
Default is now off (v2106 behaviour).
The 'useNamePrefix' keyword can be specified on a per function basis
or at the top-level of "functions".
```
functions
{
errors warn;
useNamePrefix true;
func1
{
type ...;
useNamePrefix false;
}
func2
{
type ...;
// Uses current default for useNamePrefix
}
}
```
- use `#word` to concatenate, expand content with the resulting string
being treated as a word token. Can be used in dictionary or
primitive context.
In dictionary context, it fills the gap for constructing dictionary
names on-the-fly. For example,
```
#word "some_prefix_solverInfo_${application}"
{
type solverInfo;
libs (utilityFunctionObjects);
...
}
```
The '#word' directive will automatically squeeze out non-word
characters. In the block content form, it will also strip out
comments. This means that this type of content should also work:
```
#word {
some_prefix_solverInfo
/* Appended with application name (if defined) */
${application:+_} // Use '_' separator
${application} // The application
}
{
type solverInfo;
libs (utilityFunctionObjects);
...
}
```
This is admittedly quite ugly, but illustrates its capabilities.
- use `#message` to report expanded string content to stderr.
For example,
```
T
{
solver PBiCG;
preconditioner DILU;
tolerance 1e-10;
relTol 0;
#message "using solver: $solver"
}
```
Only reports on the master node.
- provide a plain stream() method on messageStream to reduce reliance
on casting operators and slightly opaque operator()() calls etc
- support alternative stream for messageStream serial output.
This can be used to support local redirection of output.
For example,
refPtr<OFstream> logging; // or autoPtr, unique_ptr etc
// Later...
Info.stream(logging.get())
<< "Detailed output ..." << endl;
This will use the stdout semantics in the normal case, or allow
redirection to an output file if a target output stream is defined,
but still effectively use /dev/null on non-master processes.
This is mostly the same as this ternary
(logging ? *logging : Info())
except that the ternary could be incorrect on sub-processes,
requires more typing etc.
ENH: use case-relative names of dictionary, IOstream for FatalIOError
- normally yields more easily understandable information
- argList::envExecutable() static method.
This is identical to getEnv("FOAM_EXECUTABLE"), where the name of
the executable has typically been set from the argList construction.
Provides a singleton access to this value from locations that
do not have knowledge of the originating command args (argList).
This is a similar rationale as for the argList::envGlobalPath() static.
- additional argList::envRelativePath() static method.
- make -dry-run handling more central and easier to use by adding into
argList itself.
STYLE: drop handling of -srcDoc (v1706 option)
- replaced with -doc-source for 1712 and never used much anyhow
- adjust commented-out evaluation to avoid warnings.
With code like this
```
#if 0
nxin #eval{ round($nxin / 5) };
#endif
```
The handling of the "#if 0 / #endif" clause uses the plain ISstream
parser to tokenize. This means that the "round(" is parsed as a word
with a mismatched closing ')', whereas the "#eval" parser will slurp
everything in until the closing brace and send it off as a string
to the expression parser.
- support wordRes for selecting patch names
- ownerPolyPatch specification is now optional, which simplifies input
and also supports a faMesh spanning different patches but with a
single boundary condition.
Alternatively, can specify more granularity if required.
```
polyMeshPatches ( "top.*" );
boundary
{
inlet1
{
type patch;
ownerPolyPatch top1; // <- specific to this portion
neighbourPolyPatch inlet;
}
inlet2
{
type patch;
ownerPolyPatch top2; // <- specific to this portion
neighbourPolyPatch inlet;
}
outlet
{
type patch;
neighbourPolyPatch outflow;
}
bound
{
type symmetry;
neighbourPolyPatch bound;
}
}
```
- adjust surfactantFoam/planeTransport tutorial to have partial
coverage of the plate by the finiteArea mesh.
Depending on the decomposition, the outflow boundary may coincide
with a processor patch (good for testing purposes).
- additional Allrun-parallel versions for targetted future behaviour
- additional debug information
- improve support for dictionary specification of constant, polynomial
and table entries. These previously only worked properly for
primitiveEntry, which causes confusion.
- extend table Function1 to include TableFile functionality.
Simplifies switching and modifying content.
- new '-ascii' option to write in ASCII format instead of the
controlDict setting. This can be useful when generating fields that
should be parsed with other tools, or for visual inspection.
- correct mismatch of option names and lookups
- can use either command-line option "-load-fields" or dictionary
entry "readFields" to specify field names to be preloaded.
Essentially the same functionality as with a readFields function
object but with a lot less typing.
- tutorial examples provided by Ryan Danks <ryan.danks@rwdi.com>
illustrate using setExpr* utilities to calculate a quantity
as a post-processing step.
- override casename, procesorCase flags to guarantee reconstructed
case to be written to the undecomposed directory
- alternative is to construct a Zero mesh on the undecomposed
runTime and add all other bits to that but that has not been
pursued
The generalizedNewtonian viscocity models were ported from
the org version and added to the laminar turbulence framework.
This allows use in compressible and incompressible solvers
through the turbulence dictionary under the laminar sub-dictionary.
The thermal laminar viscosity is taken from the thermo for solvers
that use thermo library or from the transportProperties dictionary
for incompressible solvers.
At the moment the option to include viscocity models through the
transportDict is still available.
The icoTabulated equation of state was ported from the org version.
STYLE: use 'model' instead of 'laminarModel' in tutorials
- code reduction, documentation, code stubs for spheroid (#1901)
- make searchableSurfaceCollection available as 'collection'
for consistency with other objects
- 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
