π icoUncoupledKinematicParcelDyMFoam β bestie edition π
okay so first things first, the manual name is ICOUNCOUPL...CELDYMFOAM(1) and it lives in the OpenFOAM Commands Manual, which is giving very much "the official docs but make it a group chat". welcome to your new fave page, no cap. β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
icoUncoupledKinematicParcelDyMFoam β it's part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox). that's it, that's the whole vibe. she's a member of the family, an icon, a legend, and honestly? she ate. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
icoUncoupledKinematicParcelDyMFoam [OPTIONS]
literally that's all you gotta type, bestie. options are optional, the solver is not. π
π DESCRIPTION π
she's a transient solver for the passive transport of a single kinematic particle cloud. that's the main character energy right there. and the way she does it? with optional mesh motion and mesh topology changes too. like, she's flexible. she adapts. she's that girl. π§
π OPTIONS π
here's where it gets juicy. every single flag, in order, no skipping, because we don't gatekeep in this house. π«Ά
-casedir β point her at a specific case directory to use instead of the cwd. basically "hey girl, work over here instead." π-cloudname β name your cloud something else if you want. the default is'kinematicCloud'and that's lowkey iconic as-is, but you do you. βοΈ-decomposeParDictfile β use the file you specify for the decomposePar dictionary. custom dict, custom slay. π-parallelβ run in parallel. [Parallel option] she's doing it with her friends, not alone. π₯-postProcessβ execute functionObjects only. no solver run, just the fun little extras. π-docβ display documentation in your browser. go read, bestie, knowledge is free. π-helpβ display short help and exit. the quick version. π«-help-fullβ display full help and exit. the whole novel, every last word. π
β¨ ADVANCED OPTIONS β¨
okay so now we're in the advanced section, this is the VIP area, the backstage pass, the iykyk zone. π
-debug-switchname=val β specify the value of a registered debug switch. if you leave out the value, the default is1. (Can be used multiple times β yes, multiple times, she's generous like that.) π-fileHandlerhandler β override the file handler type. just. override it. periodt. π-hostRoots((host1 dir1) .. (hostN dirN)) β per-host slave root directories for distributed running. the host specification can be a regex, which is highkey powerful. [Parallel option] π-info-switchname=val β specify the value of a registered info switch. value omitted = default of1. (Can be used multiple times.) βΉοΈ-libname β additional library or library list to load. can be used multiple times, load up as many as your heart desires. π-listFunctionObjectsβ list functionObjects. boom, listed. ποΈ-listRegisteredSwitchesβ list switches registered for run-time modification (see the-listUnsetSwitchesoption, she'll be mentioned again, don't worry). π§-listScalarBCsβ list scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>). scalars, but make it a list. π’-listSwitchesβ list switches declared in libraries (again, see-listUnsetSwitchesoption). π§-listTurbulenceModelsβ list turbulenceModels. all of them. the whole roster. πͺοΈ-listUnsetSwitchesβ modifies switch listing to display values not set inetc/controlDict. sneaky but useful. π΅οΈ-listVectorBCsβ list vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>). now with vectors. β¬οΈ-noFunctionObjectsβ do not execute function objects. the opposite of-postProcess, she contains multitudes. π«-opt-switchname=val β specify the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). omit the value and the default is1. (Can be used multiple times.) β‘-roots(dir1 .. dirN) β slave root directories for distributed running. [Parallel option] π₯οΈ-doc-sourceβ display source code in your browser. go read the source, you brave beautiful soul. π-help-manβ display full help (manpage format) and exit. yes, exactly like the page you're reading right now. full circle moment. π-help-notesβ display help notes (description) and exit. the tl;dr of the tl;dr. π
ngl, that's a LOT of options, but you don't need all of them at once, bestie. use what you need, leave the rest. it's not that deep. π

okay and that's the whole page!! π sign-off time: this lil masterpiece comes from www.openfoam.com, version OpenFOAM-, and the date line is just... sitting there being mysterious, so we're gonna leave it exactly as she came. mwah. πβ¨π¦πΈπ
