NAME

       freefoam-decomposePar - Automatically decomposes a mesh and fields of a case for parallel
       execution of OpenFOAM.

SYNOPSIS

       freefoam decomposePar [-force] [-region] [-ifRequired] [-help] [-copyUniform] [-fields]
       [-cellDist] [-srcDoc] [-doc] [-case <dir>] [-filterPatches]

DESCRIPTION

       TODO write detailed description

OPTIONS

       -cellDist
           Write the cell distribution as a labelList for use with manual decomposition method
           and as a volScalarField for post-processing.

       -region
           Decompose named region. Does not check for existence of processor*.

       -copyUniform
           Copy any uniform directories too.

       -fields
           Use existing geometry decomposition and convert fields only.

       -filterPatches
           Remove empty patches when decomposing the geometry.

       -force
           Remove any existing processor subdirectories before decomposing the geometry.

       -ifRequired
           Only decompose the geometry if the number of domains has changed from a previous
           decomposition. No processor subdirectories will be removed unless the @a -force option
           is also specified. This option can be used to avoid redundant geometry decomposition
           (eg, in scripts), but should be used with caution when the underlying (serial)
           geometry or the decomposition method etc. have been changed between decompositions.

       -case <dir>
           Case directory.

       -help
           Display help message.

       -doc
           Display Doxygen API documentation page for this application.

       -srcDoc
           Display Doxygen source documentation page for this application.
