π ICOUNCOUPL...CPARCELFOAM(1) β the manual page, but make it a group chat
okay bestie, come sit with me, we're reading a manpage π this is icoUncoupledKinematicParcelFoam, part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox). yes, that's its whole government name. yes, it's a lot of letters. we move.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
icoUncoupledKinematicParcelFoam [OPTIONS]
that's it. that's the whole vibe. options go in, magic comes out π¦
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
it's a transient solver for the passive transport of a single kinematic particle cloud. so like. the particles are just there, riding along, not affecting the flow, no cap. passive. unbothered. main character energy only in the cloud itself π
π OPTIONS π
-case dirβ tell it which case directory to use instead of the cwd. like, use this folder, not the one you're standing in π«Ά-cloud nameβ pick an alternative cloud name. the default is'kinematicCloud'if you don't say anything β¨-decomposeParDict fileβ use this specific file for the decomposePar dictionary-dry-runβ check the case set-up only, using a single time step. a lil sneak peek, no commitment π-dry-run-writeβ check the case set-up and write, still only using a single time step-parallelβ run in parallel π [Parallel option]-postProcessβ execute functionObjects only, nothing else-docβ display documentation in your browser π-helpβ display short help and exit-help-fullβ display full help and exit π
π₯ ADVANCED OPTIONS π₯
-debug-switch name=valβ specify the value of a registered debug switch. default is1if you omit the value. (can be used multiple times, go off)-fileHandler handlerβ 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 π [Parallel option]-info-switch name=valβ specify the value of a registered info switch. default is1if you omit the value. (can be used multiple times)-lib nameβ additional library or library list to load (can be used multiple times, stack 'em π)-listFunctionObjectsβ list functionObjects-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 list turbulenceModels-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. the functionObjects are NOT invited to the party π-opt-switch name=valβ specify the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). default is1if you omit the value. (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 full help (manpage format) and exit-help-notesβ display help notes (description) and exit
