- implemented as lazy evaluation with an additional update() method.
This avoids unnecessary changes until the values are actually
required.
- apply mesh motion changes for momentum, volFieldValue,
specieReactionRates function objects
- changed the sectorCoeffs keyword to 'point' from 'axisPt'
for more similarity with other dictionaries.
Continue to accept 'axisPt' for compatibility.
- the utility had automatic triangulation removed some time ago, but
never changed its name.
- catch old uses with a surfaceMeshTriangulate deprecated script
- this corresponds to 'never match', which may be useful in combination
with -constant selection.
Eg,
surfaceMeshTriangulate -constant -time none
selects only the constant entry and suppresses any automatic time loop
STYLE: adjust help for the standard -times option
- indicate that times can be comma or space separated, since this is
otherwise not apparent. Don't mention semicolon separators in the help
since that just adds even more clutter.
- support .vtp format for geometry, surface, line, cloud.
- use native reader for handling vtk, vtp, obj, stl surface files.
For other formats, use the MeshedSurface (the surfMesh lib) to
handle reading and Foam::vtk::Tools::Patch to handle the
conversion to vtkPolyData. This combination is more memory efficient.
- update tutorial case to include vtp surface geometry
- this allows more use of the runTimePostProcessing functionObject
that will fail more gracefully if the proper version could not be
built.
The dummy functionObject simply emits a message that it is not available.
- makes the intent clearer and avoids the need for additional
constructor casting. Eg,
labelList(10, Zero) vs. labelList(10, 0)
scalarField(10, Zero) vs. scalarField(10, scalar(0))
vectorField(10, Zero) vs. vectorField(10, vector::zero)
- Now also responds to the contents of the trigger file,
processing action= contents similar to used with external coupling.
Previously it only handled an action that was defined in the
dictionary. With this update, the user can chose a diferent action
simply by echoing the appropriate action string into the trigger
file.
Reports the min|max|average AMI weights to text file and optionally
writes VTK surfaces of the sum of the weights, and mask field for
ACMI patches.
Example usage:
AMIWeights
{
type AMIWeights;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
writeControl writeTime;
writeFields yes;
}

- Uses the user-specified value for outputTemperature:
{
type externalCoupledTemperature;
outputTemperture fluid; // or wall;
}
Otherwises uses 'wall' as a default (for compatibility) and emits a
warning.
The T.out header now reflects the type of output. Eg,
# Values: area Tfluid qDot htc
- tutorials based on squareBend used Default_Boundary_Region explicitly
defined since they predated the defaultPatch renaming (2008).
The name 'Default_Boundary_Region' was for convenience as the default
name when converting to PROSTAR or CCM formation, but can now be
changed to something more generic.
- define wall boundary conditions for squareBend using a general regex
to allow future splitting of wall types by name.
- check if the first argument corresponds to an OpenFOAM value for
'true' (as per Switch).
True == 't', 'y', 'true', 'yes', 'on'. Everything else is not true.
- when the first argument is '-dict', it initializes the value
with a query via foamDictionary.
Eg,
isTrue -dict mydict -entry parallel
==> value=$(foamDictionary mydict -entry parallel -value)
isTrue $value
a missing entry is silently treated as false.
ENH: add getNumberOfPatchFaces function in RunFunctions
- simple extraction of nFaces from boundary file for given patch/region
- now supports a parcel selection mechanism like vtkCloud,
giving the ability to select a subset of parcels.
For example, a given stride, or removal of parcels with a small
diameter.
Eg,
dataCloud output Time: 3.2
Applying parcel filtering to 994 parcels
- add stride 4
- subtract field U : (less 0.2)
After filtering using 214/994 parcels
- add output precision control for dataCloud
- parallel output.
The output is now postProcessing/<name> for similar reasoning as
mentioned in #866 - better alignment with other function objects, no
collision with foamToVTK output.
- align the input parameters with those of vtkCloud so that we can
specify the ASCII precision and the padding width for the output
file names as well.
- emit TimeValue field, support file series generation
- support internal or boundary meshes, combining the result into a vtm
file.
- can restrict conversion based on zone names, enclosing volumes,
bounding box
- use parallel list writing, beginDataArray methods.
- use static_assert to restrict conversion of non-label integral types
- cache .vtp.series information by fileName instead of by cloud name.
This issues if the output directory changes, and simplifies code.
ENH: emit TimeValue in files generated by vtkCloud
- additional information for passing to ParaView
ENH: vtkCloud output to postProcessing/ (issue #866)
- better alignment with other function objects, no collision with
foamToVTK output.
- deprecate dimensionedType constructors using an Istream in favour of
versions accepting a keyword and a dictionary.
Dictionary entries are almost the exclusive means of read
constructing a dimensionedType. By construct from the dictionary
entry instead of doing a lookup() first, we can detect possible
input errors such as too many tokens as a result of a input syntax
error.
Constructing a dimensionedType from a dictionary entry now has
two forms.
1. dimensionedType(key, dims, dict);
This is the constructor that will normally be used.
It accepts entries with optional leading names and/or
dimensions. If the entry contains dimensions, they are
verified against the expected dimensions and an IOError is
raised if they do not correspond. On conclusion, checks the
token stream for any trailing rubbish.
2. dimensionedType(key, dict);
This constructor is used less frequently.
Similar to the previous description, except that it is initially
dimensionless. If entry contains dimensions, they are used
without further verification. The constructor also includes a
token stream check.
This constructor is useful when the dimensions are entirely
defined from the dictionary input, but also when handling
transition code where the input dimensions are not obvious from
the source.
This constructor can also be handy when obtaining values from
a dictionary without needing to worry about the input dimensions.
For example,
Info<< "rho: " << dimensionedScalar("rho", dict).value() << nl;
This will accept a large range of inputs without hassle.
ENH: consistent handling of dimensionedType for inputs (#1083)
BUG: incorrect Omega dimensions (fixes#2084)
