Feature add additional scaling to geometric area overlap calculation inside acmi

See merge request !374

Mattijs Janssens authored 4 years ago and Andrew Heather committed 4 years ago

Added 'scale' parameter to cyclicACMI. Scales the amount of 'coupledness' (= mask). Allows opening/closing without mesh motion.

Feature runtime selection geometry

See merge request !411

Mattijs Janssens authored 4 years ago and Andrew Heather committed 4 years ago

This adds a 'geometry' scheme section to the system/fvSchemes:

geometry
{
    type            highAspectRatio;
}

These 'fvGeometryMethod's are used to calculate
- deltaCoeffs
- nonOrthoCoeffs
etc and can even modify the basic face/cellCentres calculation.

ENH: Lagrangian - added new PatchInteractionFields cloud function object

See merge request !409

Andrew Heather authored 4 years ago and Andrew Heather committed 4 years ago

Creates volume fields whose boundaries are used to store patch interaction
statistics.

Current field output per patch face:
- \<cloud\>\<model\>:count - cumulative particle hits
- \<cloud\>\<model\>:mass - cumuluative mass of hitting particles

Fields can be reset according to:
- none: fields are not reset
- timeStep: reset at each time step
- writeTime: reset at each write time

Usage

    patchInteractionFields1
    {
        type            patchInteractionFields;
        resetMode       writeTime;
    }

Feature generalized newtonian

See merge request !384

sergio authored 4 years ago and Andrew Heather committed 4 years ago

Member function dKcdTbyKc in thermo.H is calculated from S and G at Pstd.
Thus dGdT was removed from the thermos.

- Add optional hRef, eRef and Tref as optional.

- Use new thermo to multiphase solver icoReactingMuliPhaseFoam

- Remove hRefConst and eRefConst thermos.

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

Feature local world

See merge request !398

- implicitly enabled when timeStampMaster (default) is used
  for the fileModificationChecking

- When running with non-distributed roots (eg, NFS-share) read for
  processor directories on master only and send to sub-processes
  instead individual reads.

- If disabled (old default, or when running with distributed roots),
  uses the regular fileHandler readDir, which may perform readDir
  on each processor. Potentially slow startup times on large systems.

Improvements based on analysis from T.Aoyagi(RIST), A.Azami(RIST)

ENH: buoyantTurbSource: new fvOption

See merge request !397

    Applies sources on turbulent kinetic energy (i.e. `k`)
    and either turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate (i.e. `epsilon`)
    or specific dissipation rate (i.e. `omega`) to incorporate effects
    of buoyancy on turbulence in incompressible and compressible flows.

    See buoyancyTurbSource.H for details.

  STYLE: use auto/tmp wherever possible
  ENH: make destructor/deleted constructors consistent with FOs

- can be used directly, or in special cases like a searchable plane
  with a gap of things in the centre that are not to be sampled.

- was previously via inheritance, but using member data instead
  supports a more flexible internal switching of the storage. It also
  ensures that data access remains safe, even in the absence of
  an isoSurface.

- better alignment of sampling Cell/Point/Topo inputs

- make exposedPatchName optional for isoSurface, cuttingPlane. This
  was a holdover requirement from an older version of fvMeshSubset

- loop for interpolating volume elements to face points,
  which removes duplicate code in several other places

- add debug field to isoSurfaceTopo
- don't need dynamic field for new points

- reduce code in sampledIsoSurfaceCell

- yields cleaner surfaces with few cuts.

  Can use isoMethod keyword to select cell/point/topo if they prove
  better for any particular case.

CONFIG: change default cuttingPlane algorithm from 'cell' to 'topo'

- better distinction between types of algorithms.
  Easier for future deprecation/replacement.

- bundles selection and control parameters used when creating
  iso-surfaces. This simplifies selection and specification

- drop old compatibility handling of "cell" as a bool

- harmonize filter/regularisation flags for iso-surface

- for dictionary input, accept "isoMethod" and "isoAlgorithm" as being
  synonymous. Using "isoMethod" is less subject to typing errors.

TUT: dictionary form of surfaces instead of list
