forceModel_particleVolume command
Syntax
Defined in couplingProperties dictionary.
forceModels
(
particleVolume
);
particleVolumeProps
{
verbose switch1;
writeToFile switch2;
scale scalar1;
startTime scalar2;
};
switch1 = (optional, default false) switch for output to screen
switch2 = (optional, default true) switch for output to file
scalar1 = (optional, default 1) scaling of the particle volume d=dSphere/scale
scalar2 = (optional, default 0) start time of volume calculation and output
Examples
forceModels
(
particleVolume
);
particleVolumeProps
{
writeToFile false;
}
Description
This “forceModel” does not influence the particles or the simulation - it is a postprocessing tool! The total volume of the particles located in the CFD domain is calculated.
Restrictions
None.
