The configuration file is a text file where users set options for the SU2 suite. This section briefly describes the file format and other conventions. The options themselves are described at the end of this section.
The SU2 configuration file name is of the form filename.cfg. The file extension .cfg is not optional, but the prefix can be any valid string with no spaces; e.g. config.cfg, su2-config.cfg, and flow_config.cfg are all suitable file names. The file, or a link to the file, must appear in the directory where the executables are launched. See Running SU2 on how to supply the configuration file to either the C++ executables or the Python scripts. An example configuration file, called config_template.cfg, can be found in the $SU2_HOME directory.
The configuration file consists of only three elements:
- Options: An option in the file has the following syntax: option_name = value, where option_name is the name of the option and value is the desired option value. The value element may be a scalar data type, a list of data types, or a more complicated structure. The "=" sign must come immediately after the option_name element and is not optional. Spaces and tabs between the various elements are not significant. Lower, upper, or mixed case strings are allowed. Lists of data types can formated for appearance using commas, ()-braces, {}-braces, and []-braces. Some example option formats are given below.
mach_number = 0.8 % either lower or upper case can be used for option names and values
FREESTREAM_VELOCITY = ( 5.0, 0.00, 0.00 ) % braces and commas can be used for list options
REF_ORIGIN_MOMENT= 0.25 0.0 0.0 % however, braces and commas are optional for lists
KIND_TURB_MODEL = NONE % space between elements is not significant
- Comments: On a given line in the file, any text appearing after a % is considered a comment and is ignored by SU2. Additional % signs after the first on a given line are not significant.
- White space: Empty lines are ignored. On text lines that define options, white space (tabs, spaces) can be used to format the appearance of the file
