How to add and compile a new limiter scheme in openFOAM!?

yourvahid · August 4, 2014, 13:50

I wanted to add a new limiter scheme such as "STACS" in openFOAM. I've already written the codes, however, I dont know how shall i compile and add it to openFOAM.
please note that I'm new in openFOAM environment and the interface is unfamiliar for me.
thanks a million.

I don't think any literature for the mentioned task is available.

If you are successful with your findings? you can share it with others.

Compile your code as a library, see e.g. $FOAM_SRC/finiteVolume

Use the files in Make as an example. Add the source .C files you need to compile in "files". Compile into a new library by "LIB = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/libmyLimiter" and see what dependencies you need for "options" (see, as an example $FOAM_SRC/finiteVolume/Make/options).

Compile using wmake (or wmake libso for older versions).

Add your library to the libs( ); list in your controlDict file. The TypeName you defined in the header file for your limiter should be available to select now. Good luck!

Did you study section 3.2 of the User Guide? http://www.openfoam.org/docs/user/co...plications.php

I think it answers most of your questions.
