Class
    Foam::regionSizeDistribution
 
Group
    grpFieldFunctionObjects
 
Description
    This function object creates a size distribution via interrogating a
    continuous phase fraction field.
 
    Looks up a phase-fraction (alpha) field and splits the mesh into regions
    based on where the field is below the threshold value.  These
    regions ("droplets") can now be analysed.
 
    Regions:
    - print the regions connected to a user-defined set of patches.
      (in spray calculation these form the liquid core)
    - print the regions with too large volume.  These are the 'background'
      regions.
    - (debug) write regions as a volScalarField
    - (debug) print for all regions the sum of volume and alpha*volume
 
    Output (volume scalar) fields include:
    - alpha_liquidCore : alpha with outside liquid core set to 0
    - alpha_background : alpha with outside background set to 0.
 
    %Histogram:
    - determine histogram of diameter (given minDiameter, maxDiameter, nBins)
    - write graph of number of droplets per bin
    - write graph of sum, average and deviation of droplet volume per bin
    - write graph of sum, average and deviation of user-defined fields.  For
      volVectorFields these are those of the 3 components and the magnitude.
 
    Example of function object specification:
    \verbatim
    regionSizeDistribution1
    {
        type            regionSizeDistribution;
        functionObjectLibs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
        ...
        field           alpha;
        patches         (inlet);
        threshold       0.4;
        fields          (p U);
        nBins           100;
        maxDiameter     0.5e-4;
        minDiameter     0;
        setFormat       gnuplot;
        coordinateSystem
        {
            type            cartesian;
            origin          (0 0 0);
            e3              (0 1 1);
            e1              (1 0 0);
        }
    }
