💖 LUMPEDPOINTFORCES 💖

okay bestie so this one lives in the OpenFOAM Commands Manual and it's called lumpedPointForces — it's part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox) ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lumpedPointForces [OPTIONS]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So what does she do? She extracts force/moment information from calculations you've already run, and she bases it on the lumpedPoints pressure zones. That's it, that's the whole vibe. Existing calcs in, forces and moments out. 🫶

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -case dir — tell her which case directory to use instead of the cwd 💅
  • -constant — yep, include the constant/ dir in the times list
  • -decomposeParDict file — use the file you specify for the decomposePar dictionary
  • -latestTime — just grab the latest time, main character energy only 👑
  • -noZero — exclude the 0/ dir from the times list, she doesn't need it
  • -parallel — run in parallel [Parallel option] 🔥
  • -region name — specify an alternative mesh region
  • -time ranges — list of ranges. Like ':10,20 40:70 1000:', 'none', etc
  • -vtk — create visualization files of the forces ✨
  • -doc — display documentation in your 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]
  • -info-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered info switch. Default is 1 if you leave the value out. (Can be used multiple times)
  • -lib name — additional library or library list to load (can be used multiple times)
  • -opt-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). Default is 1 if you leave the value out. (Can be used multiple times)
  • -roots (dir1 .. dirN) — slave root directories for distributed running [Parallel option]
  • -doc-source — display source code in your browser 👀
  • -help-compat — display compatibility options and exit
  • -help-man — display full help (manpage format) and exit
