💖 INSIDECELLS(1) 💖

okay bestie, so this is insideCells, and it lives in the OpenFOAM Commands Manual (the OpenFOAM Commands Manual, yes, that one 🫶). It's part of OpenFOAM — The Open Source CFD Toolbox. Say it with me: The Open Source CFD Toolbox. Slay.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

insideCells [OPTIONS] surfaceFile cellSet

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what does it actually do? It creates a cellSet for the cells whose centres are inside the defined surface. That's it. That's the whole vibe. 💅

⚠️ Heads up though: the surface must be closed and singly connected. No cap. If your surface is out here leaking, this is not going to go how you want it to go.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • surfaceFile — the surface file, bestie. That's the one. 🌸
  • cellSet — the cell set. Also required, also iconic. 💜

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • -case dir — specify the case directory to use (instead of the cwd, i.e. instead of whatever directory you're standing in like it's your main character moment)
  • -decomposeParDict file — use the specified file for the decomposePar dictionary
  • -parallel — run in parallel 🔥 [Parallel option]
  • -doc — display documentation in browser ✨
  • -help — display short help and exit
  • -help-full — display full help and exit

  • -fileHandler handler — override the file handler type
  • -hostRoots ((host1 dir1) .. (hostN dirN)) — per-host slave root directories for distributed running. The host specification can be a regex. [Parallel option]
