Namespace for functionObjects.
OpenFOAM includes a collection of functionObjects selected by the user at run-time to manipulate the simulation and provide mechanisms to extract field and derived quantities. Alternatively, the same actions can be executed after the simulation using the -postProcess command-line option.
FunctionObjects are selected by additional entries in the $FOAM_CASE/system/controlDict dictionary. Each object is listed in the functions sub-dictionary, e.g. to select the functionObjectType functionObject the following entry would be specified:
functions
{
<functionObjectName>
{
type functionObjectType;
libs ("libMyFunctionObjectlib.so");
region defaultRegion;
enabled yes;
startTime 0;
endTime 10;
writeControl writeTime;
writeInterval 1;
...
}
}
Where:
| Property | Description | Required | Default value |
type | Type of functionObject | yes | |
libs | Libraries containing implementation | yes | |
region | Name of region for multi-region cases | no | |
enabled | On/off switch | no | yes |
log | Log information to standard output | no | no |
startTime | Start time | no | |
endTime | End time | no | |
executeAtStart | Execute at start time switch | no | yes |
executeControl | See time controls below | no | timeStep |
executeInterval | Steps between each execute phase | no | |
writeControl | See time controls below | no | timeStep |
writeInterval | Steps between each write phase | no | |
Time controls:
| Option | Description |
timeStep | Execute/write every 'Interval' time-steps |
writeTime | Execute/write every 'Interval' output times |
adjustableRunTime | Execute/write every 'Interval' run time period |
runTime | Execute/write every 'Interval' run time period |
clockTime | Execute/write every 'Interval' clock time period |
cpuTime | Execute/write every 'Interval' CPU time period |
none | Execute/write every time-step |
The sub-dictionary name <functionObjectName> is chosen by the user, and is typically used as the name of the output directory for any data written by the functionObject. The type entry defines the type of function object properties that follow. FunctionObjects are packaged into separate libraries and the libs entry is used to specify which library should be loaded.
Each functionObject has two separate run phases:
- The
execute phase is meant to be used for updating calculations or for management tasks.
- The
write phase is meant for writing the calculated data to disk.
For each phase the respective time controls are provided, as listed above.
