π chtMultiRegionFoam(1) π
okay bestie, buckle UP, because this one is literally part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox) and it's giving very serious solver energy. it's a page in the OpenFOAM Commands Manual, and yes, the manual name is right there in the title, we're keeping it, periodt. β¨
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
chtMultiRegionFoam [OPTIONS]
that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. one binary, a pile of options, and a dream. π¦
π DESCRIPTION π
so like β chtMultiRegionFoam is a transient solver. it handles buoyant, turbulent fluid flow and solid heat conduction, all while doing conjugate heat transfer between solid and fluid regions. π₯π§
like... the fluid is doing its chaotic fluid thing, the solid is doing its chill (or not-chill) solid thing, and this solver is the friend group mediator making sure the heat gets passed between them correctly. main character energy fr fr. π
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
-casedir β tell it which case directory to use, instead of just vibing in the cwd π-decomposeParDictfile β use the file you specify for thedecomposePardictionary-parallelβ run in parallel π« [Parallel option]-postProcessβ executefunctionObjectsonly, nothing else, no cap-docβ pop the documentation open in your browser π-helpβ show the short help and dip π-help-fullβ show the full help and dip πβ¨
π ADVANCED OPTIONS π
-debug-switchname=val β set the value of a registered debug switch. if you leave the value out, the default is1. (can be used multiple times, go off) π-fileHandlerhandler β override the file handler type-hostRoots((host1 dir1) .. (hostN dirN)) β per-host slave root directories for distributed running. the host specification can be a regex. [Parallel option] π₯οΈ-info-switchname=val β set the value of a registered info switch. default is1if you omit the value. (can be used multiple times) βΉοΈ-libname β an additional library or library list to load (can be used multiple times) π-listFunctionObjectsβ listfunctionObjects-listFvOptionsβ listfvOptions-listRegisteredSwitchesβ list switches registered for run-time modification (peep the-listUnsetSwitchesoption π)-listScalarBCsβ list scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>)-listSwitchesβ list switches declared in libraries (again, see the-listUnsetSwitchesoption)-listTurbulenceModelsβ listturbulenceModelsπͺοΈ-listUnsetSwitchesβ modifies the switch listing so it displays values not set inetc/controlDict-listVectorBCsβ list vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>)-noFunctionObjectsβ do not execute function objects π-opt-switchname=val β set the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). default is1if the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times)-roots(dir1 .. dirN) β slave root directories for distributed running [Parallel option]-doc-sourceβ display the source code in your browser π-help-manβ display the full help in manpage format and exit-help-notesβ display the help notes (the description) and exit π
