ToBeFunctionObjects in OF6

fedvasu · September 26, 2018, 21:00

where are the post processing utilities in OF 6,

specifically 'writeCellCentres'

"ToBeFunctionObjects" group is absent from OF6 and I found only 'write' and 'writeMeshObj' in OF6

Regards,

Are you asking how to execute the stuff or is it a general inquiry? Your question is not really precise. As I could see in Doxygen, it is there.

These have been made into function objects. All of which can be executed with the postProcess command. So you need to place the relevant functionobject into your controlDict. You can afterwards execute them via e.g
simpleFoam -postProcess, which would run all functionObjects in your controlDict. For many non solver specific function objects you can also simple run postProcess.

The one you mentioned for example can be used without adding the functionObject. In this case:

Code:

postProcess -func writeCellCentres

It was both but @Bloerb's answers my immediate question of how to execute it in OF6.

Yeah I found it now.

Thanks
