- previously reported the WM_PROJECT_VERSION in the top banner
but this makes it overly sensitive to arbitrary user naming.
Change to the current API in the comment banner, include the
WM_PROJECT_VERSION as part of the reported "Build: ..."
string instead.
- previously had a patch-size check, which caused a zero-sized patch
to be "sticky" as uniform Zero regardless of what the original input
stated (eg, "constant 0.5")
This was caused by short-circuiting logic that circumvented reading
on zero-size patches.
- support non-uniform scaling, prescaling and cartesian coordinate
transformations.
Eg, stretch in one direction and then rotate
```
prescale (1.5 1 1);
transform
{
origin (0 0 0);
rotation
{
type axisAngle;
axis (0 0 1);
angle 45;
}
}
```
- support "transformed" versions of blockMesh vertices, topology.
With the additional of transformations etc, a simplistic application
of a single scale parameter is no longer sufficient.
new: blMesh.vertices(true);
old: blMesh.vertices() * blMesh.scaleFactor();
new: blMesh.topology(true);
old: N/A
- add individual edge access for blockDescriptor.
Saves copying and duplicate calculations.
- handle '(block face)' specification for curved faces,
which is ok for external block faces, but likely somewhat
questionable if used for internal block faces.
- Can specify
```
transform
{
origin (1 2 3);
rotation none;
}
```
instead of the longer form
```
transform
{
origin (1 2 3);
e1 (1 0 0);
e3 (0 0 1);
}
```
COMPAT: remove old (pre-1812) Euler and STARCD keywords
- use "angles", remove old compat name "rotation"
as clutter and possible confusion with "coordinate rotation"
STYLE: remove coordinate rotation move constructors
- an unnecessary holdover from older code.
- for v2106 restricted the input conversion of string types to disallow
treating verbatim strings as possible word input.
However, it was too strict in just allowing quoted strings
and should have also permitted '$'-sigil variables as well.
- ensure that errors for bad string -> word input conversion
are raised from within the '>>' read operator. These were
previously triggered during the stripping process, which
made error tracing more difficult.
The original thermoSurfaceFilm sub-models were divided between kinematicSurfaceFilm and thermoSurfaceFilm in order to use the surfaceFilm model in a kinematicCloud.
The film interaction models are now in a kinematicSurface class which can be used in a kinematic cloud adding constant thermal properties (p and T) for some sub-models, e.g. drySplashInteraction/wetSplashInteraction.
pRef and Tref were added to the kinematicSurfaceFilm as entry to the regionFilm when used with a kinematic cloud.
In the finite area surface film model Tref, pRef are stored in filmSubModelBase.
TUT: kinematicParcelFoam: new tutorial pitzDailySprinkles
ENH: Several additions to thinFilm models
1) Changing the faSolution entry nonOrthoCorr to nFilmCorr entry.
This entry specify the number of iterations on the film thickness
Eq which does not correct for laplacian non-orthogonality.
2) Changing laminar turbulent model for the skin friction exerted by
the flow to the film.
3) Adding optional relaxation factors for source terms coming from
the added mass of the lagragian particles into the film such as
rhoSp, pnSp and Usp. Similarly the film pressure (pf) can be
relaxed in the inner loops.
4) Adding optional entries to curvatureSepration injection model.
minimum (fThreshold) force and minimum curvature (minInvR1) for
separation were added to have more control on determining the
points of film separation
ENH: ThermoSurfaceFilm in lagragian to search for finiteArea film models
- new model framework: liquidFilm
- new film turbulence models: filmTurbulenceModel with friction models
- new velocity boundary condition: velocityFilmShell to handle/evolve regionFa film
- new function object: setTimeStep to control the simulation time-step based on regionFa Courant number
- add support for the absorption of Lagrangian particles into films
