Input

Name Nickname Description Type
Write Interval WriteInt Write interval in time steps. Optional; uses solver default if omitted. Integer
Write Format Format Write format: 'ascii', 'binary', or 'compressed'. Text
CPU Count CPU Number of CPUs/subdomains to use. Optional; default is 1. Integer
Initial Solid Time Step Factor SolidStep Initial solid time step factor for UMF controlDict. Optional. Number
Min Delta T MinDT Minimum time step between iterations. Optional. Number
Max Delta T MaxDT Maximum time step between iterations. Optional. Number
Min Fluid Iterations MinFI Minimum fluid iterations per hourly step before the residual controls may end it. Template default 200: the bulk field of a warm-started hour is stationary by ~150-200 iterations. Optional. Number
Max Fluid Iterations MaxFI Maximum fluid iterations per hourly step (template default 1000). The residual controls normally end a warm-started hour at ~200-300 iterations; the first, cold-started hour needs ~350-500. Optional. Number
PC Equation Form PcForm 'pc-based' or 'mixed' (default is pc-based). Text
Damping Thickness DampThk Blending coefficients: damping thickness. Optional. Number
Alpha Coeff U AlphaU Blending coefficients: alphaCoeffU. Optional. Number
Alpha Coeff T AlphaT Blending coefficients: alphaCoeffT. Optional. Number
