Download and compile (viz nodes)

This sections is inspired from <http://redmine.scorec.rpi.edu/projects/pumi/wiki/Build_Instructions>. The SCOREC tools now build against CMake. Only Parma, the PHASTA utilities and phParAdapt still builds against Autotools. From a termonal, run the following commands:

cd ~ soft add +cmake

Convert geom_ver63.sms to FMDB format

• This can be done in same directory in which you created geom_ver63.sms. You first need to convert geom_ver63.sms to FMDB format. The executable that will do this is at /users/jema6380/runSimMesh2FMDB.sh
• Make a link from the output file, geom_FMDB.sms, to geom.sms (ln -s geom_FMDB.sms geom.sms)

Create geom.spj

• If you have not done so already, create geom.spj. This is not done with Simulation Maker as was done previously, but can simply be done with a vim editor. See the file /users/jema6380/Models/Boeing/BetaScale2CaltechTunnel/CT_Open32_B0_D30_U20/9-A0-24jets/geom.spj for some guidance. As a quick example, if your boundary condition is a velocity of 20 i_hat m/s (comp3) on the inlet face (which let's say has a face number of 1651), then you would enter:

  comp3: 1651 2 20 1 0 0

where the "2" designates that we are talking about a face, which has 2 dimensions; the "20" is the speed; and the "1 0 0" is the direction.

• Michel created a script that will make this process faster, which is desirable if you have a large number of faces. If you want to use the script, then first use the executable at /users/jema6380/getFaceList.sh to create a list of faces. From the terminal type:

  ./getFaceList.sh "input_file"

where "input_file" is the file that contains the face numbers, which presumably does not already list them consecutively. This might be BLattr.inp, for exmple.

• Now create a new directory called "FacesModelAttributes" and put all of the boundary conditions in .dat files. See the files in /users/jema6380/Models/Boeing/BetaScale2CaltechTunnel/CT_Open32_B0_D30_U20/Simplified_SPJ_file/FacesModelAttributes/ for guidance. Make sure all the .dat files have a name that begins with "attr_" .
• copy /users/jema6380/buildSimplifiedAttrFile.sh to the Simplified_SPJ_file directory and do:

  ./buildSimplifiedAttrFile.sh

• This should create a file called result.spj, which contains all of the boundary conditions. cd back to your working mesh directory and make a link from result.spj to geom.spj. Also make a link from result.spj to geomNOIC.spj

Partition geom_ver63.sms

• Make sure you have geom.xmt_txt in your working directory.
