this helps to keep the core blackoil model code lean and mean and it
is also less confusing for newbies because the ECL blackoil simulator
is not a "test" anymore.
in case somebody wonders, "ebos" stands for "&eWoms &Black-&Oil
&Simulator". I picked this name because it is short, a syllable, has
not been taken by anything else (as far as I know) and "descriptive"
names are rare for programs anyway: everyone who does not yet know
about 'git' or 'emacs' and tells me that based on their names they
must be a source-code managment system and an editor gets a crate of
beer sponsored by me!
This code is required in the first place because opm-material always
specifies all parameters in terms of the wetting saturations while the
gas is the non-wetting phase in a gas-oil system.
this does not disrupt the block nature of the linearized matrix
(i.e. Dune::BCRSMatrix is still used), but if the number of auxiliary
equations is smaller than that of the "main" discretization, the
superfluous equations are padded. if the number of additional
equations are larger than that of the equation, additional DOFs are
added.
the biggest change is that it is now based on a new approach: the well
model now always calculates the bottom hole pressure for the full well
when asked for a source term. This change makes it possible to
implement cross flow within wells properly and should also make the
well model physically correct.
Also, the well model now uses the connection transmissibility factor
which makes it possible to use this quantity if it is specified by the
deck...
the goal is to make it faster on computers with many cores: The
easiest way to do this is to ensure that the longest running tests are
not taking too much time and that they need about the same time. Thus
this patch contains the following changes which limits the CPU time
taken by each test to about two minutes in debug mode on my machine:
- the water-air problem using the non-isothermal primary variable
switching model now uses an 16x16 instead of a 32x32 grid. as a
compensation it now runs for a year instead of 5000 seconds and the
global grid refinement is now tested.
- the end time of the lens problem ctests is now 3000 instead of
30000 seconds. The binary itself does not change at all.
- sort the tests in the CMakeLists.txt roughly in the order of their
required time. (this will cause ctest not having to wait for long
running test which were started late for too long.)
it was used for debugging intersection mappers. to make this include
work, dune-cornerpoint must be available and that the intersection
mapper PR must be merged.
this means that all code which could potentially throw an exception is
moved to this method(). (In particular FluidSystem::init() proved
troublesome in the past.) Besides avoiding segmentation the faults
which stem from exceptions thrown in constructors, this also has the
advantage that simulations which spend a noticable amount of time to
initialize stop at the "correct" place, i.e. after the "Finish init of
the problem" message was printed by the simulator...
this regressed after time step index of the initial solution was
changed from 0 (actually, this was also 0 for the first time step...)
to -1 in b30af664.
this method checks that the difference in the storage terms before and
after a time step is the same as the accumulated fluxes over the
domain boundary plus the source terms.
... and actually use it for the lens problems. This seems to have been
disabled for debugging and later it was probably forgotten to turn it
on again. This led to some minor bit-rot in that code...
The reason for this is to be able to modify the tolerance according to
grid size: The NewtonTolerance parameter has been renamed to
NewtonRawTolerance and for the porous media models is divided by the
square root of the volume of the smallst finite volume in the grid to
get the final tolerance for the Newton method. This is necessary
because very large grids need to achive a higher volumetric accuracy
in the residual than very small ones...
basically the init() method was split into a finishInit() method which
fills the data structures allocated in the constructor with meaningful
data and into applyInitialSolution() which does just that (and no
more!)
"intensive" means that the value of these quantities at a given
spatial location does not depend on any value of the neighboring
intensive quantities. In contrast, "extensive" quantities depend in
the intensive quantities of the environment of the spatial location.
this change is necessary is because the previous nomenclature was very
specific to finite volume discretizations, but the models themselves
were already rather generic. (i.e., "volume variables" are the
intensive quantities of finite volume methods and "flux variables"
are the extensive ones.)
because "manager" sounds less religious than "creator" and the
GridCreators did all kinds of other stuff besides creating the grid.
this patch also gets rid of the static function inside these classes,
which should make them easier to understand...
this also comes with moving responsibilities around and some smaller
cleanups for the grid creation. (although grid creation could be
possibly done by the simulator now, the GridCreator concept has not
been abandoned, yet...)
this allows to retrieve the name of the problem before it is
instantiated. this is required to be able to print the "Initializing
problem" message at the correct point (i.e., before instantiating the
problem).
and some other minor changes. (if you need line search the issue is
probably caused a different problem and line search would be just a
work-around anyway.)
This should make things a much more robust, partially because now the
linear and the non-linear solvers use the same convergence criterion.
Also, this patch includes some collateral indentation improvements.
This makes eWoms multi-discretization capable. Along the way, this
fixes some bugs and does a medium sized reorganization of the source tree.

introduction of the GridCommHandleFactory concept which constructs
communication handles suited for the respective spatial
discretization...
--------
60th commit message:
fix a few annoying bugs
first, default the convergence criterion for the linear solver did not
honor the initial residual which lead to linear solver breakdowns,
then some debugging code was left in the discrete fracture model and
then there was a bug in the TP gradient approximation class...
this has the consequence that we need a new reference solution for the
discrete fracture problem...
--------
61st commit message:
iterative linear solver: remove the code for the non-default convergence criteria

provide the FE cache instead of the local FE

local FE was not initialized at this point.
--------
63rd commit message:
(Navier-)Stokes: fix bug due to the transition to unit normals
now, all tests pass for this branch. The only things which need to be
fixed are some annoying performance regressions compared to master and
some bug in the splices feature of the property system...
--------
64th commit message:
some fix for the local residual of the immiscible model
--------
65th commit message:
Navier-Stokes: implement SCV center gradients
There seems to be a bug in the previous implementation (the jacobian
inverse transposed is evaluated using the local, not the global
geometry), so the reference solution for the stokes2c test problem has
also been updated...
--------
66th commit message:
remove the ALUGrid specialization of the LensGridCreator and the YaspGrid one for the fingerproblem
using different grid seems to sometimes cause a different vertex
order, which in turn causes the respective test to fail if the
reference solution was computed using the other grid...
--------

VCFV: use the correct BorderListCreator
this makes MPI parallel computations work again. apart from
performance regressions, this branch does not exhibit any known

except the Navier-Stokes and the two-phase DFM models, of course...
--------

minor fixes
- make the navier-stokes model slighly more generic by using the
proper (in,ex)teriorIndex() methods on sub-control volumes
- make the signature of the calculateValue() template method of the
common two-point gradient approximator match the one of the vertex
centered finite volume one
--------

update reference solutions
these were changed because of the screw-up with the area of boundary
segments...

rename "ImplicitBase" to "FvBase"
because in eWoms, everything is implicit and these are currently the
base classes for all finite volume discretizations.
--------
77th commit message:
make the spatial discretization selectable using a splice
This requires an opm-core with a the patches from
https://github.com/OPM/opm-core/pull/446 merged...
--------
78th commit message:
rename the properties used for splices to *Splice
--------
