      ENH: pimpleDyMFoam: Improved efficiency and consistency when running on a static mesh · 81cea099
      Henry Weller authored and Andrew Heather's avatar Andrew Heather committed
      Now pimpleDyMFoam is exactly equivalent to pimpleFoam when running on a
      staticFvMesh.  Also when the constant/dynamicMeshDict is not present a
      staticFvMesh is automatically constructed so that the pimpleDyMFoam solver can
      run any pimpleFoam case without change.

      BUG: compressibleInterFoam family: Corrected transonic option · 293c0c30

      ENH: compressibleInterFoam family: merged two-phase momentum stress modelling from compressibleInterPhaseTransportFoam
      
      The new momentum stress model selector class
      compressibleInterPhaseTransportModel is now used to select between the options:
      
      Description
          Transport model selection class for the compressibleInterFoam family of
          solvers.
      
          By default the standard mixture transport modelling approach is used in
          which a single momentum stress model (laminar, non-Newtonian, LES or RAS) is
          constructed for the mixture.  However if the \c simulationType in
          constant/turbulenceProperties is set to \c twoPhaseTransport the alternative
          Euler-Euler two-phase transport modelling approach is used in which separate
          stress models (laminar, non-Newtonian, LES or RAS) are instantiated for each
          of the two phases allowing for different modeling for the phases.
      
      Mixture and two-phase momentum stress modelling is now supported in
      compressibleInterFoam, compressibleInterDyMFoam and compressibleInterFilmFoam.
      The prototype compressibleInterPhaseTransportFoam solver is no longer needed and
      has been removed.

      ENH: rigidBodyModelState: Added time value member · fe595af8
      Will Bainbridge authored and Andrew Heather's avatar Andrew Heather committed
      The absolute value of the the time has been added to the rigid body
      model state. This value is not directly necessary for calculating the
      evolution of the rigid body system, it just facilitates the
      implementation of sub-models which are in some way time-dependent.

      ENH: reconstructParMesh: Match face point averages on coupled patches · f30e0ab8
      Will Bainbridge authored and Andrew Heather's avatar Andrew Heather committed
      In the event that matching centroids across a coupled patch pair fails,
      we fall back to matching the face point average. The latter can be
      obtained more reliably on degenerate faces as the calculation does not
      involve division by the face area.
      
      This fallback was already implemented as part of processorPolyPatch.
      This change also applies it to the faceCoupleInfo class used by
      reconstructParMesh.

      ENH: compressibleInterPhaseTransportFoam: New variant of compressibleInterFoam supporting separate phase stress models
      
      In this version of compressibleInterFoam separate stress models (laminar,
      non-Newtonian, LES or RAS) are instantiated for each of the two phases allowing
      for completely different modeling for the phases.
      
      e.g. in the climbingRod tutorial case provided a Newtonian laminar model is
      instantiated for the air and a Maxwell non-Newtonian model is instantiated for
      the viscoelastic liquid.  To stabilize the Maxwell model in regions where the
      liquid phase-fraction is 0 the new symmTensorPhaseLimitStabilization fvOption is
      applied.
      
      Other phase stress modeling combinations are also possible, e.g. the air may be
      turbulent but the liquid laminar and an RAS or LES model applied to the air
      only.  However, to stabilize this combination a suitable fvOption would need to
      be applied to the turbulence properties where the air phase-fraction is 0.
