LBM Run - [source code]

Launch a lattice-Boltzmann case from the LBM Case component (OpenLB in a container or natively, or FluidX3D on the GPU — whichever the case was built with). Writes the case first if it has not been written, then opens the solver in a terminal window. Read results with Probe (points), LBM Field (the probe layer) or FluidX3D Live View.

Input

Name Nickname Description Type
Case C The LBM case from the LBM Case component. Generic Data
Run R Write the case (if needed) and launch the solver in a terminal window. Boolean

Output

Name Nickname Description Type
Logs L Run log / status. Text
Case C Case directory the readers resolve against (the OpenLB case, or the FluidX3D VTK export directory) — plug into Probe, LBM Field or FluidX3D Live View. Text
Domain D Resolved simulation domain in world coordinates, as on the LBM Case component. Box
Folder F Case root folder: the OpenLB case directory, or the FluidX3D case root holding the source tree beside the VTK export directory that Case points at. Text
