Henry Weller 1d7e1a7ad5 functionObjects: renamed faceSource -> surfaceRegion, cellSource -> volRegion
The use of the term 'source' in the context of post-processing is
confusing and does not properly describe the process of region
selection.  The new names 'surfaceRegion' and 'volRegion' better
describe the purpose of the functionObjects which is to provide field
processing functionality limited to a specified region of space, either
a surface or volume.

The keyword 'source' is renamed 'regionType' which better describes the
purpose which is to specify the method by which the surface or volume
region is selected.

The keyword to select the name of the surface or volume region is
renamed from 'sourceName' to 'name' consistent with the other
name-changes above.

OpenFOAM Configuration

The main OpenFOAM settings are located in the parent etc/ directory. The bash and csh shells are supported and to configure OpenFOAM source etc/bashrc or etc/cshrc respectively which source the following files in the config.sh or config.csh respectively:

  • settings: core settings
  • aliases: aliases for interactive shells
  • unset: sourced to clear as many OpenFOAM environment settings as possible
  • mpi: MPI communications library settings
  • ensight: application settings for EnSight
  • paraview: application settings for ParaView
  • scotch: application settings for compiling against scotch
  • metis: application settings for compiling against metis 5

The config.*/example directories contains various example configuration files for the corresponding shell:

  • compiler: an example of fine tuning ThirdParty compiler settings
  • openmpi: an example of fine tuning openmpi settings for OpenFOAM
  • paraview: an example of chaining to the standard config/paraview with a different ParaView_VERSION
  • prefs: an example of supplying alternative site-defined settings
