Detailed Description

Provides options to set the velocity and flux fields as a function of time.

Useful for testing advection behaviour of numerical schemes by e.g. imposing solid body rotation, vortex flows. All types include a scaling Function1 type enabling the strength of the transformation to vary as a function of time.

Operands:

Operand Type Location
input {vol,surface}<Type>Field $FOAM_CASE/<time>/<inpField>
output file - -
output field {vol,surface}<Type>Field $FOAM_CASE/<time>/<outField>

where <Type>=Scalar/Vector/SphericalTensor/SymmTensor/Tensor.

Usage
Minimal example by using system/controlDict.functions:
setFlow1
{
    // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
    type        setFlow;
    libs        (fieldFunctionObjects);

    // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
    mode        rotation;
    scale       1;

    // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
    U           U;
    rho         none;
    phi         phi;
    reverseTime 1;

    // When mode=function
    velocity    (1 0 0);

    // When mode=rotation
    omega       6.28318530718;
    origin      (0.5 0 0.5);
    refDir      (1 0 0);
    axis        (0 1 0);

    // When mode=(vortex2D|vortex3D)
    origin      (0.5 0 0.5);
    refDir      (1 0 0);
    axis        (0 1 0);

    // Optional (inherited) entries
    ...
}

where the entries mean:

Property Description Type Req'd Dflt
type Type name: readFields word yes -
libs Library name: fieldFunctionObjects word yes -
mode Operating mode - see below word yes -
scale Scaling function Function1<scalar> yes -
U Name of velocity field word no U
rho Name of density field word no none
phi Name of flux field word no phi
reverseTime Specified time to reverse flow direction scalar no VGREAT
velocity Velocity function Function1<vector> conditional -
omega Rotational speed function Function1<scalar> conditional -
origin Rotation vector origin vector conditional -
refDir Rotation vector reference direction vector conditional -
axis Rotation vector axis vector conditional -

Options for the mode entry:

      function
      rotation
      vortex2D
      vortex3D

The inherited entries are elaborated in:
