OpenFOAM11 #151

Closed BKeim-UB closed 6 months ago

BKeim-UB commented 6 months ago

Hi,

Could you please install OpenFOAM version 11 (https://openfoam.org/version/11/)?

tonykew commented 6 months ago

I have built the latest version of OpenFOAM for which there is an easyconfig file - version 2206 which uses sources from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/openfoam/files/v2206/

I don't know why the versioning numbers diverge between OpenFOAM on sourceforge and OpenFOAM from openfoam.org

The files in the OpenFOAM 11 version are dated July 8th 2023 The files in the OpenFOAM v2206 version are dated July 24th 2022

The easyconfig file uses a custom patch for EasyBuild with OpenFOAM so it is unlikely that I can just bump the version numbers to build a newer version (from sourceforge) though I will try.

More info to follow...

The newer version of OpenFOAM completes a build, but is missing many binaries. I'm guessing this will need new patches for a complete build. I have rebuilt v2206 against the just published version of ParaView, version 5.11.2 More info to follow...

OpenFOAM has been published to the ccrsoft/2023.01 software release I have tested launching the GUI from a terminal in CCR OnDemand successfully. Note: use the "NOTLEGACY" node feature when launching the CCR OnDemand session
