e.g. data files written by functionObjects
Attempts to interpret automatically the format of time-data files
Works successfully with majority of time-data output, e.g. forceCoeffs,
but will be unsuccesful on files with inconsistent output format
Creates symbolic links to all VTK files in a post-processing directory
Links form a sequence like name.0000.vtk, name.0001.vtk, etc.
Paraview recognises link names as a sequence which can be animated.
The sequence of links can be used to create a video from the images.
Time directory is first time directory (0) by default
Alternatively the user can specify the latest time directory
Requires the latest (2.3.x) foamListTimes utility
For multi-region cases the default location of blockMeshDict is now system/<region name>
If the blockMeshDict is not found in system then the constant directory
is also checked providing backward-compatibility
Command-line option handling:
+ If -all specified or no refineMeshDict exists or, refine all cells
+ If -dict <file> specified refine according to <file>
+ If refineMeshDict exists refine according to refineMeshDict
When the refinement or all cells is selected apply 3D refinement for 3D
cases and 2D refinement for 2D cases.
Description
Specify an etc file to include when reading dictionaries, expects a
single string to follow.
Searches for files from user/group/shipped directories.
The search scheme allows for version-specific and
version-independent files using the following hierarchy:
- \b user settings:
- ~/.OpenFOAM/\<VERSION\>
- ~/.OpenFOAM/
- \b group (site) settings (when $WM_PROJECT_SITE is set):
- $WM_PROJECT_SITE/\<VERSION\>
- $WM_PROJECT_SITE
- \b group (site) settings (when $WM_PROJECT_SITE is not set):
- $WM_PROJECT_INST_DIR/site/\<VERSION\>
- $WM_PROJECT_INST_DIR/site/
- \b other (shipped) settings:
- $WM_PROJECT_DIR/etc/
An example of the \c \#includeEtc directive:
\verbatim
#includeEtc "etcFile"
\endverbatim
The usual expansion of environment variables and other constructs is
retained.
Now interaction methods must be specified for all non-coupled patches.
If this approach proves irritating a warning rather than an error could
be generated.

Previous behavior which may be useful for moving-mesh cases can be
selected using the optional entry:
writeVolume yes;
The initial volume is written in the log and data file header e.g.:
# Source : all
# Cells : 3829
# Volume : 9.943164e-01
Also added
sumMag | sum of component magnitudes
Previous behavior which may be useful for moving-mesh cases can be
selected using the optional entry:
writeArea yes;
The initial total area is written in the log and data file header e.g.:
# Source : faceZone f0
# Faces : 8
# Area : 1.063860e-02
