RHOCENTRALDYMFOAM(1)

πŸ’– RHOCENTRALDYMFOAM πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is rhoCentralDyMFoam, and it's part of OpenFOAM (that's The Open Source CFD Toolbox, in case you didn't know, and you should know πŸ’…).


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

rhoCentralDyMFoam [OPTIONS]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So what does it do, you ask? It's a density-based compressible flow solver built on the central-upwind schemes of Kurganov and Tadmor. That's the whole vibe. πŸ”₯

And listen β€” it also comes with support for mesh-motion and topology changes. Yes, the mesh can be moving. Yes, the topology can change. It's giving main character energy, fr fr.


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -case dir β€” tells it which case directory to use, instead of just vibing in the cwd.
  • -decomposeParDict file β€” use this specific file for the decomposePar dictionary. No cap.
  • -parallel β€” run it in parallel. [Parallel option] πŸƒβ™€οΈπŸƒβ™€οΈ
  • -postProcess β€” execute functionObjects only. Nothing else, just those.
  • -doc β€” pops the documentation open in your browser. Iconic.
  • -help β€” short help, then it exits. Quick lil snack.
  • -help-full β€” full help, then it exits. The full meal. πŸ“

πŸ‘‘ ADVANCED OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

  • -debug-switch name=val β€” set the value of a registered debug switch. Default is 1 if you leave the value out. (Can be used multiple times.)
  • -fileHandler handler β€” override the file handler type.
  • -hostRoots ((host1 dir1) .. (hostN dirN)) β€” per-host slave root directories for distributed running. The host specification can be a regex. [Parallel option]
  • -info-switch name=val β€” set the value of a registered info switch. Default is 1 if the value is omitted. (Can be used multiple times.)
  • -lib name β€” an additional library or library list to load (can be used multiple times).
  • -listFunctionObjects β€” list functionObjects.
  • -listRegisteredSwitches β€” list switches registered for run-time modification (peep the -listUnsetSwitches option).
  • -listScalarBCs β€” list scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>).
  • -listSwitches β€” list switches declared in libraries (again, see the -listUnsetSwitches option).
  • -listTurbulenceModels β€” list turbulenceModels.
  • -listUnsetSwitches β€” modifies the switch listing so it shows values not set in etc/controlDict.
  • -listVectorBCs β€” list vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>).
  • -noFunctionObjects β€” do not execute function objects. Nope. Not today.
  • -opt-switch name=val β€” set 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) β€” slave root directories for distributed running. [Parallel option]
  • -doc-source β€” display the source code in your browser. πŸ‘€
  • -help-man β€” display full help in manpage format, then exit.
  • -help-notes β€” display help notes (the description) and then exit.

okay and that's the whole page, bestie 🫢 this was RHOCENTRALDYMFOAM(1) from the OpenFOAM Commands Manual β€” brought to you by www.openfoam.com, tagged OpenFOAM-, and yeah the manpage footer is literally just the title again, which is so on brand honestly 😭 slay, go run your solver πŸ’…βœ¨
