Class
    Foam::functionObjects::extractEulerianParticles
 
Group
    grpFieldFunctionObjects
 
Description
    Generates particle size information from Eulerian calculations, e.g. \c VoF.
 
    Operands:
    \table
      Operand           | Type        | Location
      input             | -           | -
      output file       | -           | -
      output field 1    | scalarField | $OUTPUT/d
      output field 2    | scalarField | $OUTPUT/soi
      output field 3    | labelField  | $OUTPUT/tag
      output field 4    | vectorField | $OUTPUT/U
    \endtable
 
    where \c $OUTPUT=$FOAM_CASE/<time>/lagrangian/eulerianParticleCloud.
 
Usage
    Minimal example by using \c system/controlDict.functions:
    \verbatim
    extractEulerianParticles1
    {
        // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
        type            extractEulerianParticles;
        libs            (fieldFunctionObjects);
 
        // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
        faceZone        f0;
        alpha           alpha.water;
 
        // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
        alphaThreshold  0.1;
        nLocations      0;
        U               U;
        rho             rho;
        phi             phi;
        minDiameter     1e-30;
        maxDiameter     1e30;
 
        // Optional (inherited) entries
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property   | Description                          | Type | Req'd | Dflt
      type       | Type name: extractEulerianParticles  | word |  yes  | -

      faceZone   | Name of faceZone used as collection surface | word  | yes | -
      alpha      | Name of phase indicator field        | word |  yes  | -
      alphaThreshold | Threshold for alpha field        | scalar | no  | 0.1
      nLocations | Number of injection bins to generate | label  | no  | 0
      U          | Name of velocity field               | word   | no  | U
      rho        | Name of density field                | word   | no  | rho
      phi        | Name of flux field                   | word   | no  | phi
      minDiameter | Minimum diameter                    | scalar | no  | SMALL
      maxDiameter | Maximum diameter                    | scalar | no  | GREAT
    \endtable
 
    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
     - \link functionObject.H \endlink
     - \link writeFile.H \endlink
 
    Usage by the \c postProcess utility is not available.
