HI all
I see doc but I dont understand what is the particlerate!or how particlerate insert particles?
in one example:
nparticles 1000 particlerate 5000 insert_every 1000
how particlerate can be biger than nparticle?
please help me
thank you

Particle rate is how fast you
Particle rate is how fast you're trying to insert particles, i.e. # particles / sec. In the example you quote, a particle rate of 5000 particles/sec means that the simulation will try to create the 1000 particles specified in 0.2 seconds.

Hi,
Hi,
So what is the role of insert_every 1000 if you mean it is every 0.2 sec?

The insert_every setting
The insert_every setting describes how often the simulation tries to put the particles into the system. You can think of the particle insertion as really occurring as a series of insertions. The insert_every determines how often those insertions occur. Your particle rate, insert_every, and time step will collectively determine how many particles are inserted with each insertion.
See the documentation for the fix_insert commands for more details.
