Detailed Description

Creates a volume field with zero-gradient boundary conditions from another volume field.

The result can be used, for example, to post-process near-wall field values.

Operands:

Operand	Type	Location
`input`	vol<Type>Field	$FOAM_CASE/<time>/<inpField>
`output` file	-	-
`output` field	vol<Type>Field	$FOAM_CASE/<time>/<outField>

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

Usage

Minimal example by using system/controlDict.functions:

zeroGradient1
{
    // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
    type        zeroGradient;
    libs        (fieldFunctionObjects);

    // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
    fields      (<field1> ... <fieldN>); \\(U "(T|k|epsilon|omega)");

    // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
    result      @@<name>;

    // Optional (inherited) entries
    ...
}

where the entries mean:

Property	Description	Type	Req'd	Dflt
`type`	Type name: zeroGradient	word	yes	-
`libs`	Library name: fieldFunctionObjects	word	yes	-
`fields`	Name of the operand fields	wordList	yes	-
`result`	Name of the output field	word	no	zeroGradient(@)

The inherited entries are elaborated in:

functionObject.H

Usage by the postProcess utility is not available.

Note

A list of fields can contain exact names or regular expressions. The token '@@' in the result name is replaced by the name of the source field. In the special case of a single source field (specified as a non-regex), the '@@' token checking is suppressed.
The function object will skip over fields that would not benefit i.e., only processor, empty, zeroGradient, symmetry patches. This check should also prevent processing fields multiple times.
