particleVolume

Syntax

Defined in couplingProperties dictionary.

postProcessingModels
(
    particleVolume
);
particleVolumeProps
{
    verbose      switch;
    writeToFile  switch;
    scale        scalar;
    startTime    scalar;
};

  • verbose = switch for output to screen (default: false)

  • writeToFile = switch for output to file (default: true)

  • scale = scaling of the particle volume d=dSphere/scale (default: 1)

  • startTime = start time of volume calculation and output (default: 0)

Examples

postProcessingModels
(
    particleVolume
);
particleVolumeProps
{
    writeToFile false;
}

Description

Note

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.
