fieldTimeAverage

Syntax

Defined in couplingProperties dictionary.

postProcessingModels
(
    fieldTimeAverage
);
fieldTimeAverageProps
{
    startTime time;
    scalarFieldNames wordList;
    vectorFieldNames wordList;
};
  • time = time to start temporal averaging (default: 0)

  • scalarFieldNames = list of names of the finite volume scalar fields to be temporally averaged

  • vectorFieldNames = list of names of the finite volume vector fields to be temporally averaged

Examples

postProcessingModels
(
    fieldTimeAverage
);
fieldTimeAverageProps
{
    startTime 1.0;
    scalarFieldNames ( "voidfraction" );
    vectorFieldNames ( "U" "Us" );
}

Description

Starting at start time the specified fields are temporally averaged and written at writeTime. They can then be probed using standard function object probes. The output name is timeAverage_scalarField, where scalarField is the name of the original field.

Restrictions

None.
