💖 MULTIPHASEINTERFOAM 💖

okay bestie, so this is multiphaseInterFoam, and she's part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox) — you know, the whole OpenFOAM Commands Manual situation. come sit with me, we're doing this together 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

multiphaseInterFoam [OPTIONS]

🌊 DESCRIPTION 🌊

okay so picture this: a solver for N incompressible fluids that ✨captures the interfaces✨ and includes surface-tension and contact-angle effects for each phase. every single phase. she's thorough like that 💅

and she also does optional mesh motion and mesh topology changes. no cap. moving meshes, changing meshes, she handles it all. main character energy fr fr 🌈

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -case dir — tell her which case directory to use instead of the cwd (the current working directory, bestie, the place you're standing rn) 💖
  • -decomposeParDict file — use the file you specify for the decomposePar dictionary
  • -dry-run — check the case set-up only, using a single time step. a little vibe check before the real thing ✨
  • -dry-run-write — check the case set-up and write, only using a single time step
  • -parallel — run in parallel [Parallel option]. multiple cores, multiple slays 🔥
  • -postProcess — execute functionObjects only
  • -doc — display documentation in the browser 🌸
  • -help — display the short help and dip
  • -help-full — display the FULL help and exit. she said no half measures 💅

🦋 ADVANCED OPTIONS 🦋

  • -debug-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered debug switch. default is 1 if you omit the value. (can be used multiple times, she loves a repeat)
  • -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 the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times)
  • -lib name — additional library or library list to load (can be used multiple times)
  • -listFunctionObjects — list functionObjects
  • -listFvOptions — list fvOptions
  • -listRegisteredSwitches — list switches registered for run-time modification (see the -listUnsetSwitches option)
  • -listScalarBCs — list scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>)
  • -listSwitches — list switches declared in libraries (see the -listUnsetSwitches option)
  • -listTurbulenceModels — list turbulenceModels
  • -listUnsetSwitches — modifies the switch listing to display values not set in etc/controlDict
  • -listVectorBCs — list vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>)
  • -noFunctionObjects — do not execute function objects. she's on a no-functionObjects cleanse 🧚
  • -opt-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). default is 1 if the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times)
  • -roots (dir1 .. dirN) — slave root directories for distributed running [Parallel option]
  • -doc-source — display source code in the browser 👀
  • -help-man — display full help (manpage format) and exit
  • -help-notes — display help notes (description) and exit

okay and that's the whole page, bestie 💖 this was the multiphaseInterFoam manpage from the OpenFOAM Commands Manual, living over at www.openfoam.com, version OpenFOAM- (yeah, the version field's just sitting there empty, we don't ask questions 🙈). love u, go run some fluids 🍓💅
