💖 PISOFOAM(1) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the OpenFOAM Commands Manual — this lil page is all about pisoFoam, which is part of OpenFOAM, the Open Source CFD Toolbox. she's a real one, i promise. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

pisoFoam [OPTIONS]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Transient solver for incompressible, turbulent flow, using the PISO algorithm. that's it, that's the whole vibe — she runs through time, she handles your incompressible turbulent flow, and she does it with the PISO algorithm. main character energy fr fr. 💅

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -case dir — Specify case directory to use (instead of the cwd). like, tell her where the case lives instead of making her guess from wherever you're standing. 🏠
  • -decomposeParDict file — Use specified file for decomposePar dictionary.
  • -dry-run — Check case set-up only using a single time step. a lil vibe check before the real thing, no cap.
  • -dry-run-write — Check case set-up and write only using a single time step. same energy as -dry-run but she also writes. ✍️
  • -parallel — Run in parallel [Parallel option]. glow up by running on many cores at once. 🔥
  • -postProcess — Execute functionObjects only. just the functionObjects, nothing else, periodt.
  • -doc — Display documentation in browser. 🌐
  • -help — Display short help and exit. the quick lil "hey what do u do" 🥺
  • -help-full — Display full help and exit. the whole lore drop. 📚

👑 ADVANCED OPTIONS 👑

  • -debug-switch name=val — Specify the value of a registered debug switch. Default is 1 if the value is omitted. (Can be used multiple times)
  • -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 -listUnsetSwitches option).
  • -listScalarBCs — List scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>).
  • -listSwitches — List switches declared in libraries (see -listUnsetSwitches option).
  • -listTurbulenceModels — List turbulenceModels.
  • -listUnsetSwitches — Modifies switch listing to display values not set in etc/controlDict.
  • -listVectorBCs — List vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>).
  • -noFunctionObjects — Do not execute function objects.
  • -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 browser. 👀
  • -help-man — Display full help (manpage format) and exit.
  • -help-notes — Display help notes (description) and exit.
quick note bestie: the -parallel, -hostRoots and -roots ones are tagged [Parallel option] — that's the tea, don't forget it. ☕
