Detailed Description

Generates streamline data by sampling a set of user-specified fields along a particle track, transported by a user-specified velocity field, constrained to a patch.

Operands:

Operand	Type	Location
`input`	-	-
`output` file	-	$FOAM_CASE/postProcessing/<FO>/<time>/<file>
`output` field	-	-

Usage

Minimal example by using system/controlDict.functions:

wallBoundedStreamLine1
{
    // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
    type            wallBoundedStreamLine;
    libs            (fieldFunctionObjects);

    // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
    U               <fieldTrack>;
    fields          (<fieldTrack> <field1> ... <fieldN>);
    setFormat       vtk;
    direction       bidirectional;
    lifeTime        10000;
    cloud           particleTracks;
    seedSampleSet
    {
        type        patchSeed;
        patches     (wall);
        axis        x;
        maxPoints   20000;
    }

    // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
    bounds          (0.2 -10 -10)(0.22 10 10);
    trackLength     1e-3;
    nSubCycle       1;
    interpolationScheme cellPoint;

    // Deprecated
    // trackForward true;

    // Optional (inherited) entries
    ...
}

where the entries mean:

Property	Description	Type	Req'd	Dflt
`type`	Type name: wallBoundedStreamLine	word	yes	-
`libs`	Library name: fieldFunctionObjects	word	yes	-
`U`	Name of tracking velocity field	word	yes	-
`fields`	Names of operand fields to sample	wordList	yes	-
`setFormat`	Type of output data	word	yes	-
`direction`	Direction to track	vector	yes	-
`lifetime`	Maximum number of particle tracking steps	label	yes	-
`cloud`	Name of cloud	word	yes	-
`seedSampleSet`	Name of seeding method (see below)	word	yes	-
`bounds`	Bounding box to trim tracks	vector	no	invertedBox
`trackLength`	Tracking segment length	scalar	no	VGREAT
`nSubCycle`	Number of tracking steps per cell	label	no	1
`interpolationScheme`	Interp. scheme for sample	word	no	cellPoint

Options for the seedSampleSet entry:

      uniform   | uniform particle seeding
      cloud     | cloud of points
      patchSeed | seeding via patch faces
      triSurfaceMeshPointSet | points according to a tri-surface mesh

Options for the setFormat entry:

        csv
        ensight
        gnuplot
        jplot
        nastran
        raw
        vtk
        xmgr

Options for the direction entry:

        bidirectional
        forward
        backward

The inherited entries are elaborated in:

functionObject.H

Usage by the postProcess utility is not available.

Note: When specifying the track resolution, the trackLength OR nSubCycle option should be used.
