✨ interPhaseChangeDyMFoam — the OpenFOAM glow-up 💖

okay bestie, sit DOWN because we're talking about interPhaseChangeDyMFoam(1), and she's part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox). yes, the whole toolbox. iconic behavior only.

🌸 NAME 🌸

interPhaseChangeDyMFoam — part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox). that's it, that's the name, she's lowkey mysterious like that. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

interPhaseChangeDyMFoam [OPTIONS]

that's the whole vibe. flags go in the brackets, no cap.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so this solver is for two incompressible, isothermal immiscible fluids with phase-change. two fluids, bestie. they do NOT mix (immiscible, she said what she said), everything stays at the same temperature (isothermal), nothing gets compressed (incompressible), and there's phase-change happening on top of all that. it's giving multitasking queen. 👑

and how does she track where one fluid ends and the other begins? VOF (volume of fluid) phase-fraction based interface capturing. that's the interface-capturing moment. 🌊

plus — and this is the part that makes her special, iykyk — she's got optional mesh motion and mesh topology changes, including adaptive re-meshing. the mesh can literally move and reshape itself. main character energy fr fr. 🔥

✨ OPTIONS ✨

here come the flags, and no we are NOT skipping any of them, every single one is getting her moment:

  • -case dir — tell her which case directory to use instead of the cwd. be specific, she loves that. 📁
  • -decomposeParDict file — use the file you picked for the decomposePar dictionary.
  • -parallel — run in parallel. [Parallel option] — yes she does multi-core, she's booked and busy. ⚡
  • -postProcess — execute functionObjects only. nothing else, just the functionObjects. boundaries. 🫶
  • -doc — pops the documentation open in your browser. study up, bestie.
  • -help — short help, then she dips. bye. 👋
  • -help-full — full help, then she dips. the deluxe version. 💖

👑 ADVANCED OPTIONS 👑

okay this is the VIP section, come through:

  • -debug-switch name=val — set the value of a registered debug switch. if you leave the value off, the default is 1. and yes, you can use it multiple times, stack 'em. 🐛
  • -fileHandler handler — override the file handler type. she's flexible like that.
  • -hostRoots ((host1 dir1) .. (hostN dirN)) — per-host slave root directories for distributed running. the host spec can be a regex, so go wild. [Parallel option] 🖥️
  • -info-switch name=val — set the value of a registered info switch. value omitted? default 1. repeat as much as you want. 💬
  • -lib name — load an extra library, or a whole library list. can be used multiple times, collect them like stickers. 📚
  • -listFunctionObjects — lists the functionObjects. window shopping. 🛍️
  • -listFvOptions — lists the fvOptions.
  • -listRegisteredSwitches — lists switches registered for run-time modification (peep the -listUnsetSwitches option, they're besties).
  • -listScalarBCs — lists scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>).
  • -listSwitches — lists switches declared in libraries (again, see the -listUnsetSwitches option).
  • -listTurbulenceModels — lists turbulenceModels. chaotic, in a good way. 🌪️
  • -listUnsetSwitches — modifies the switch listing so it shows values that are not set in etc/controlDict. sneaky peek energy. 🙈
  • -listVectorBCs — lists vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>).
  • -noFunctionObjects — do NOT execute function objects. she's on strike, respectfully. 💀
  • -opt-switch name=val — set the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). omit the value and the default is 1. can be used multiple times. ⚙️
  • -roots (dir1 .. dirN) — slave root directories for distributed running. [Parallel option]
  • -doc-source — display the source code in your browser. reading the source is a love language, ngl. 💜
  • -help-man — full help in manpage format, then exit.
  • -help-notes — help notes (the description), then exit. 📝
