OVERRHOSIMPLEFOAM(1)

💖 OVERRHOSIMPLEFOAM(1) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the OpenFOAM Commands Manual — you know, the whole Open Source CFD Toolbox situation — and the star of the show is overRhoSimpleFoam. pull up a chair, we're doing this together 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

overRhoSimpleFoam [OPTIONS]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. you run it, you give it options, it does its thing. main character energy fr fr 👑

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

overRhoSimpleFoam is an overset steady-state solver for compressible turbulent flow. that's the whole description. short, iconic, no notes. 💅

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

every single one, bestie, i'm not skipping a thing:

• -case dir — tell it which case directory to use, instead of just rolling with the current working directory (cwd). lowkey essential if you're not already standing in the right folder.
• -decomposeParDict file — use the file you specify for the decomposePar dictionary. your dict, your rules.
• -parallel — run it in parallel. this one is a [Parallel option], so it's for when you're doing the multi-process thing. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️
• -postProcess — only execute functionObjects. nothing else, just the function objects. it's giving "i'm here for one job".
• -doc — pop the documentation open in your browser. 🌈
• -help — show a short help and dip. quick and sweet.
• -help-full — show the FULL help and then exit. the whole lore. 📚

🔥 ADVANCED OPTIONS 🔥

these are the deep cuts, the ones for when you're really in your element:

• -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 this multiple times. (Can be used multiple times)
• -fileHandler handler — override the file handler type. you're the boss of it now.
• -hostRoots ((host1 dir1) .. (hostN dirN)) — per-host slave root directories for distributed running. the host specification can be a regex, so go wild. [Parallel option] 🖥️✨
• -info-switch name=val — set the value of a registered info switch. omit the value and the default is 1. (Can be used multiple times)
• -lib name — load an additional library, or a whole list of libraries. can be used multiple times, so stack 'em. 📚
• -listFunctionObjects — list the functionObjects. just show me the goods.
• -listFvOptions — list the fvOptions.
• -listRegisteredSwitches — list the switches registered for run-time modification. (see the -listUnsetSwitches option) 👀
• -listScalarBCs — list scalar field boundary conditions, aka fvPatchField<scalar>.
• -listSwitches — list switches declared in libraries. (see the -listUnsetSwitches option)
• -listTurbulenceModels — list turbulenceModels. the turbulence lineup, revealed. 🌪️
• -listUnsetSwitches — modifies the switch listing so it displays values that are not set in etc/controlDict. sneaky peek at the blanks.
• -listVectorBCs — list vector field boundary conditions, aka fvPatchField<vector>.
• -noFunctionObjects — do NOT execute function objects. respectfully, no function objects today. 🙅‍♀️
• -opt-switch name=val — set the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). leave the value out 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. peek behind the curtain 🦋
• -help-man — display full help in manpage format and exit.
• -help-notes — display help notes (the description) and exit.

okay and that's the whole page, bestie. this came to you courtesy of www.openfoam.com, tagged as version OpenFOAM- (yes, it's literally just that, the version string said what it said 💀), and it's the OVERRHOSIMPLEFOAM(1) page from the OpenFOAM Commands Manual. go forth and solve some compressible turbulent flow. slay. ✨🎀🦋
