PyFoam.RunDictionary.SolutionFile module

Working with solutions

class PyFoam.RunDictionary.SolutionFile.SolutionFile(directory, name)

Bases: FileBasis

Solution data file

Represents a file with the solution data for one OpenFOAM-field at one point of time

Currently this can only handle uniform field values (and never will handle more because the ParsedParameterFile-class does a much better job)

__annotations__ = {}

__init__(directory, name)

Parameters:

directory – name of the directory containing the solutions

for a specific time :param name: name of the field.

__module__ = 'PyFoam.RunDictionary.SolutionFile'

dimensionPattern()

pattern for the dimension string

getContent(treatBinaryAsASCII=False, listLengthUnparsed=None, doMacroExpansion=False)

Returns the parsed content of the file

getDimensionString()

builds a dimension string from the dimension information in the file

internalPattern()

pattern for internal fields

internalPatternGeneral()

general pattern for internal fields

internalPatternUniform()

pattern for internal fields

readBoundary(name)

read the value at a boundary

name - the name of the boundary patch

readDimension()

read the dimension of the field

readInternal()

read the value of the internal field

readInternalUniform()

read the value of the internal field

replaceBoundary(name, newval)

write the value at a boundary

Parameters:

• name – the name of the boundary patch

• newval – the new value

replaceInternal(newval)

overwrite the value of the internal field

newval - the new value

stopPattern()

pattern that ends a boundary

valuePattern()

pattern for values
