Build

Requirements

CMake version 2.6 or higher
Eigen 3
googletest (development optional)
benchmark (development optional)

Basic

# Clone the project
# Load OpenFOAM environment

cd <project_dir>
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make # alternatively make -j 4 for parallell build

Development

# Clone the project
# Load OpenFOAM environment

cd <project_dir>

# Donload benchmark
git submodule init
git submodule update 

# Build the project
mkdir build
cd build
ccmake ../  # Alternatively cmake with appropriate options

Usage

The current version uses canonical twoPhaseEulerFoam. The only necessary change is to include

libs ("libPBE.so")

in your controlDict. See tests/validation/ for example usages against some known experimental cases.
