Summary
Adds a new update function to dynamicFvMesh that enables users to control how often the mesh is updated for moving mesh cases.
Details of new models (If applicable)
Adds a timeControl object to dynamicFvMesh, i.e. the same controls as used by function objects. This requires the top-level solver to call the new
mesh.controlledUpdate();function instead of
mesh.update();Currently applied to pimpleFoam and rhoPimpleFoam only for beta testing, and likely to be rolled out across other solvers in future releases.
Example usage in the dynamicMeshDict
updateControl timeStep;
updateInterval 5;Risks
Only applied to the solvers mentioned above (for now) - testing has not shown any regressions.
