hello everyone,

I want to run a case several times with different boundary conditions, the BC dictionaries are changed programmaticlly. And I need a tool to reset the case before each running so that I can get the last timestep correctly. Is there such a tool to help clean up the folder?




regards

Yi

Bernhard, thanks! It seems to be the right tool for me, but unfortuntly I cannot use PyFoam. Is there no such tool inside OpenFoam?

You just have to install PyFoam first, you can do that in your own folders.

Alternatively, you can look in $WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/tools/CleanFunctions where you find some bash functions using the same thing. However, I like pyFoam a bit better.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I use OpenFoam under Windows because of certain reason. I do think the things will be easier if I can do it under Linux. I'll try PyFoam later.
About the second method, I'm not quite sure how I can use it. I'm using the windows port by symscape. I copied the Allclean file from a tutorial case, but it didn't work, I think I must change something properly for windows even the CleanFunctions work. I tried to google some information about the bash function but without success, maybe you can give me some advice.

For Windows, I have no clue.
