OpenFOAM utilities, work in progress ...

Utilities

Field files diffing

aaFoamDiff.py file_1 file_2

Works on non uniform field files (timestep > 0 /U /p ....) that are defined on identical meshes.

Produces a <field>_diff file in the folder of file_1

The values are file_1 minus file_2

Forces monitoring

aaFoamForcesWatcher.py -l 50 -t 173 -r 5

aaFoamForcesWatcher.py -h

Run at case root, during the run or when the case is solved

Opens a live plot of the forces (requires the forces function in system/controlDict) as it reads the postProcessing/forces/0/force.dat file.

Requirements

Python 3, numpy & matplotlib

Most of the OpenFOAM files parsing code comes from https://github.com/dayigu
