BUOYANTSIMPLEFOAM(1)

💖 buoyantSimpleFoam — a whole manual page but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the OpenFOAM Commands Manual entry for buoyantSimpleFoam, which is literally part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox). yes, that OpenFOAM. the big one. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

buoyantSimpleFoam — part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox). that's it, that's the name section, she's brief and she's iconic 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

buoyantSimpleFoam [OPTIONS]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

steady-state solver for buoyant, turbulent fluid flow of compressible fluids, and yes girl, it does radiation too. like. it said "I contain multitudes." 🌈

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -case dir — point it at the case directory you wanna use instead of just vibing in the current working directory (cwd). bestie, tell it where to look. 💖
• -decomposeParDict file — use the specific file you name for the decomposePar dictionary. yes, that one.
• -dry-run — just check the case set-up, using only a single time step. a lil dress rehearsal, no commitment. 👀
• -dry-run-write — check the case set-up and write, using only a single time step. dress rehearsal but she's also doing the full glam.
• -parallel — run in parallel. [Parallel option] 🔥
• -postProcess — execute functionObjects only. that's the whole job.
• -doc — display documentation in the browser. glamorous.
• -help — display short help and exit. quick lil recap.
• -help-full — display full help and exit. the director's cut. 👑

---

💜 ADVANCED OPTIONS 💜

• -debug-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered debug switch. default is 1 if you omit the value. (can be used multiple times, go off)
• -fileHandler handler — override the file handler type. take the wheel.
• -hostRoots ((host1 dir1) .. (hostN dirN)) — per-host slave root directories for distributed running. the host specification can be a regex. [Parallel option] 🧚
• -info-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered info switch. default is 1 if the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times)
• -lib name — additional library or library list to load. (can be used multiple times) stack 'em up 🍓
• -listFunctionObjects — list functionObjects.
• -listFvOptions — list fvOptions.
• -listRegisteredSwitches — list switches registered for run-time modification (see the -listUnsetSwitches option).
• -listScalarBCs — list scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>).
• -listSwitches — list switches declared in libraries (see the -listUnsetSwitches option).
• -listTurbulenceModels — list turbulenceModels.
• -listUnsetSwitches — modifies switch listing to display values not set in etc/controlDict. the "who's missing" report ✨
• -listVectorBCs — list vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>).
• -noFunctionObjects — do not execute function objects. hard pass, apparently.
• -opt-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). default is 1 if the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times)
• -roots (dir1 .. dirN) — slave root directories for distributed running. [Parallel option]
• -doc-source — display source code in the browser. we're reading the source, bestie 📖
• -help-man — display full help (manpage format) and exit.
• -help-notes — display help notes (description) and exit.

okay that's the whole page, no cap, every single flag accounted for 🫶

this one comes to you straight from www.openfoam.com in the OpenFOAM Commands Manual, version string is literally OpenFOAM- (yes, she's short, we love her anyway), and the date slot is empty so we're just gonna say undated, timeless, iconic. bye bestie, go run your solver 💅✨🌸
