New in CFD 5.1.1.1 (rel. to 5.1.1)
==================================

# This changelog does not cover changes in IDA ICE,
# e.g. Visualization improvements are excluded.

+ The backend now relies on OpenFOAM 13 instead of OpenFOAM 10.

+ Improved stability and robustness of the CFD solver through small
  adjustments to some boundary conditions.

+ The web-view of the backend now includes residuals plots and sensor
  data evolution plots.

+ Fixed an issue where the WSL installation process could fail
  silently under certain conditions. (Exception handling improved.)

+ Default setting for "Refinements" -> "Boundary layer extrusion" is now 1
  instead of 0, to improve accuracy of wall heatfluxes. Input is
  changed to an integer value [0:7] instead of a boolean (tickbox).
  (This increases the cell count and time for meshing for the default
  settings.)

+ Documentation is updated including a guide for setting up the backend
  as a remote docker container, which can be used to bypass WSL requirements.
