8.2-hybrid (2011-07-14)

---

• Name this release after the reinvoked SALOME to OpenFOAM binding - hybridFlu

• hybridFlu functionality comes in sources and was tested with SALOME r5.1.3 and OpenFOAM r1.7.1

• Advancing pythonFlu make system in the way that any other third-party functionality can use and extend the referenced pythonFlu wrapping definition

• As an example how to achive this look in the implementation of hybridFlu related packages (foam2vtk and unv2foam)

8.1-Elvis (2011-06-01)

---

• Name this release after the person who believed in this project and inspired us continue its developement. Thank you "Elvis"!

• Extracting Python solvers from the initial pythonFlu distribution.
  Since "Elvis" release pythonFlu kernel fucntionality and corresponding Python solvers, will be advanced and distributed separately.

Look at http://pythonflu.wikidot.com/solvers to see the available solvers

Look at http://pythonflu.wikidot.com/install-solvers to learn how to install them

• The following 7 new solvers were implemented in Python :
  • rhoPorousMRFPimpleFlux (compressible)
  • porousSimpleFlux (incompressible)
  • buoyantPimpleFlux (heatTransfer)
  • compressibleInterFlux, twoLiquidMixingFlux, interDyMFlux (multiPhase)
  • dnsFlux (DNS)

• The whole pythonFlu wrapping scheme were revised, as result size of the corresponding binary packages were decresed in 3 - 5 times and amount of RAM needed to compile them decreased in about 2 times

• pythonflu.wikidot.com web-site were updated to discuss in details installation from sources procedure.

8.0 (2011-04-04)

---

• Porting on the latest 1.7.1 and 1.6-ext OpenFOAM versions

• "Maturity" of the wrapping increased in 2 times (now it is possible to reproduce 26 of 63 referenced OpenFOAM solvers)

• Preparation of native Linux binary packages (available for Ubuntu and OpneSUSE, i386 and amd64 architectures)

• Minor bug-fixing
