COMPRESSIBLEINTERFOAM(1)
π COMPRESSIBLEINTERFOAM π
okay so bestie, welcome to compressibleInterFoam β she's part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox), and she is that girl. this is the page from the OpenFOAM Commands Manual, and we're gonna get you fluent, fr fr.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
compressibleInterFoam [OPTIONS]
like, you run the thing, you maybe give it some options, that's the whole vibe. π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
She's a solver for two compressible, non-isothermal immiscible fluids using VOF phase-fraction based interface capturing. no cap, that's the entire job description and she ate. π¦
π OPTIONS π
-casedir β point her at the case directory you wanna use instead of just vibing in the cwd. π-decomposeParDictfile β use the file you name for thedecomposePardictionary.-dry-runβ just check the case set-up, using a single time step. a little vibe check before the real thing. π-dry-run-writeβ check the case set-up and write, using a single time step.-parallelβ run in parallel.[Parallel option]π₯-postProcessβ executefunctionObjectsonly, nothing else, main character behaviour.-docβ display documentation in browser.-helpβ display short help and dip. βοΈ-help-fullβ display full help and exit.
β¨ ADVANCED OPTIONS β¨
-debug-switchname=val β specify the value of a registered debug switch. default is1if the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times) 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-info-switchname=val β specify the value of a registered info switch. default is1if the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times)-libname β 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 (see the-listUnsetSwitchesoption).-listScalarBCsβ list scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>).-listSwitchesβ list switches declared in libraries (see the-listUnsetSwitchesoption).-listTurbulenceModelsβ listturbulenceModels. πͺοΈ-listUnsetSwitchesβ modifies switch listing to display values not set inetc/controlDict.-listVectorBCsβ list vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>).-noFunctionObjectsβ do not execute function objects. π-opt-switchname=val β specify 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 source code in browser. π€-help-manβ display full help (manpage format) and exit.-help-notesβ display help notes (description) and exit.
bestie reminder: the [Parallel option] ones are, like, parallel-only. don't be surprised. π
