WENO framework

Weighted essentially non-oscillatory library for the framework of OpenFOAM. Detailed information about the theoretical background and the implementation can be found in:

A quick overview of the WENO scheme is provided in this presentation:

Please also check out the Discussion board of GitHub for more information about features or if you want to post a new idea.

Versions:

Major development stages of the library are marked by tags and recently also have a release with a DOI.

Supported OpenFOAM Versions:

Installation

  1. Clone the directory with git clone https://github.com/WENO-OF/WENOEXT.git

  2. Execute Allwmake to build the library The compilation of the library uses cmake instead of wmake files!

Options

Parallel compilation can be activated with: ./Allwmake -j <# of cores> if the number of cores is omitted, it is determined automatically.

On the master branch only clean git commits can be compiled. If a dirty git state shall be compiled the -f|--force option has to be used on the master branch.

CMake Options

Several options can be set over CMake commands with,

./Allwmake -D<CMAKE_OPTION>
Cmake Command Options Description
MARCH_NATIVE ON/OFF Activates march=native flag. Default ON
Use this flag if you get an "illegal instruction error" during execution.
USE_LAPACK ON/OFF Use LAPACK library for matrix operations such as eigen values
If switched on, check with the WENO-PerformanceTests if the performance improves or decreases.
USE_FMA ON/OFF Use std::fma for WENO math functions. Default ON
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Release/Debug/None When the debug option is selected the OpenFOAM FULLDEBUG flag is activated

Commands not listed in the table are forwarded to cmake, allowing to use all standard CMake commands.

Note to GNU compiler:

GNU compiler version must be higher than 7. For g++ < v7 an error is reported for the specialisation template syntax. The syntax in the code is according to C++11 standard which is available for g++ v7 and higher.

Usage

To use the WENO scheme you have to add the library to your controlDict by editing system/controlDict

libs("libWENOEXT.so")

Within your system/fvSchemes file,

divSchemes
{
    div(phi,U)  Gauss WENOUpwindFit 2 1;
}

Here the first index '2' represents the order of the WENO scheme and the second index can be either '1' for bounded or '0' for unbounded.

Further options can be set in the WENODict located in the 'system/' folder:

Specialized Version for Scalar Transport

The limited WENOUpwindFit scheme uses a cell limited approach known from other schemes such as linearUpwind. For scalar transport in the range 0 to 1 a specialized scheme called WENOUpwindFit01 is available. This schemes limits the value using the limiter of Zhang and Shu.

Tutorials

The code contains two tutorials from the standard cavity test. To run the tutorials execute ./Allrun in the tutorial/ directory.

Tests

Testing is performed with the CATCH2 framework. You can compile and execute the tests by executing ./runTest in the test directory. Further instructions are found in here

Contineous Integration

To check the code for different OpenFOAM implementations, e.g. OpenFOAM 8, OpenFOAM v1912, etc. the code is copied into different docker containers created with the Dockerfiles in CI/. In the docker container the code is compiled and unit tests executed.

Executing the tests is controlled over the Makefile in the root directory. The different OpenFOAM versions can be tested with 

# Just executing make runs all tests
make

# For OpenFOAM v5.x
make runTestsOF5

# For OpenFOAM 8
make runTestsOF8

This implementation allows to have the same testing on the local and remote branch.
