LTS is selected by the ddt scheme e.g. in the tutorials/multiphase/interFoam/ras/DTCHull case: ddtSchemes { default localEuler rDeltaT; } LTSInterFoam is no longer needed now that interFoam includes LTS support.

fvOptions does not have the appropriate structure to support MRF as it is based on option selection by user-specified fields whereas MRF MUST be applied to all velocity fields in the particular solver. A consequence of the particular design choices in fvOptions made it difficult to support MRF for multiphase and it is easier to support frame-related and field related options separately. Currently the MRF functionality provided supports only rotations but the structure will be generalized to support other frame motions including linear acceleration, SRF rotation and 6DoF which will be run-time selectable.

Allows the specification of a reference height, for example the height of the free-surface in a VoF simulation, which reduces the range of p_rgh. hRef is a uniformDimensionedScalarField specified via the constant/hRef file, equivalent to the way in which g is specified, so that it can be looked-up from the database. For example see the constant/hRef file in the DTCHull LTSInterFoam and interDyMFoam cases.

This is an experimental feature demonstrating the potential of MULES to create bounded solution which are 2nd-order in time AND space. Crank-Nicolson may be selected on U and/or alpha but will only be fully 2nd-order if used on both within the PIMPLE-loop to converge the interaction between the flux and phase-fraction. Note also that Crank-Nicolson may not be used with sub-cycling but all the features of semi-implicit MULES are available in particular MULESCorr and alphaApplyPrevCorr. Examples of ddt specification: ddtSchemes { default Euler; } ddtSchemes { default CrankNicolson 0.9; } ddtSchemes { default none; ddt(alpha) CrankNicolson 0.9; ddt(rho,U) CrankNicolson 0.9; } ddtSchemes { default none; ddt(alpha) Euler; ddt(rho,U) CrankNicolson 0.9; } ddtSchemes { default none; ddt(alpha) CrankNicolson 0.9; ddt(rho,U) Euler; } In these examples a small amount of off-centering in used to stabilize the Crank-Nicolson scheme. Also the specification for alpha1 is via the generic phase-fraction name to ensure in multiphase solvers (when Crank-Nicolson support is added) the scheme is identical for all phase fractions.

The old separate incompressible and compressible libraries have been removed. Most of the commonly used RANS and LES models have been upgraded to the new framework but there are a few missing which will be added over the next few days, in particular the realizable k-epsilon model. Some of the less common incompressible RANS models have been introduced into the new library instantiated for incompressible flow only. If they prove to be generally useful they can be templated for compressible and multiphase application. The Spalart-Allmaras DDES and IDDES models have been thoroughly debugged, removing serious errors concerning the use of S rather than Omega. The compressible instances of the models have been augmented by a simple backward-compatible eddyDiffusivity model for thermal transport based on alphat and alphaEff. This will be replaced with a separate run-time selectable thermal transport model framework in a few weeks. For simplicity and ease of maintenance and further development the turbulent transport and wall modeling is based on nut/nuEff rather than mut/muEff for compressible models so that all forms of turbulence models can use the same wall-functions and other BCs. All turbulence model selection made in the constant/turbulenceProperties dictionary with RAS and LES as sub-dictionaries rather than in separate files which added huge complexity for multiphase. All tutorials have been updated so study the changes and update your own cases by comparison with similar cases provided. Sorry for the inconvenience in the break in backward-compatibility but this update to the turbulence modeling is an essential step in the future of OpenFOAM to allow more models to be added and maintained for a wider range of cases and physics. Over the next weeks and months more turbulence models will be added of single and multiphase flow, more additional sub-models and further development and testing of existing models. I hope this brings benefits to all OpenFOAM users. Henry G. Weller
