okay bestie, welcome to postProcess β she's part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox) and she is literally the group chat of your simulation era. no cap.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
postProcess [OPTIONS]
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
She runs the set of functionObjects you picked β either the ones living in the selected dictionary, or the ones you shout at her on the command line β for the selected set of times, on the selected set of fields. that's the whole vibe. main character energy, periodt. π
π OPTIONS π
-casedir β tell her which case directory to use instead of just vibing in the cwd π-constantβ slide the'constant/'dir into the times list too β¨-decomposeParDictfile β use this specific file for the decomposePar dictionary π«Ά-dictfile β read the control dictionary from the location you specify π-fieldname β name the field to be processed, e.g.UπΈ-fieldslist β hand her a whole list of fields to process, e.g.'(U T p)'π-funcname β name the functionObject to execute, e.g.Qβ-funcslist β the names of the functionObjects to execute, e.g.'(Q div(U))'π₯-latestTimeβ select the latest time, no thoughts just the newest one π-listβ list the available configured functionObjects (a lil menu moment) π-noZeroβ keep the'0/'dir out of the times list, we said no π-parallelβ run in parallel [Parallel option] π-profilingβ activate application-level profiling, let's see the numbers bestie π-regionname β specify an alternative mesh region π§-timeranges β list of ranges.
