Class
Foam::outletPhaseMeanVelocityFvPatchVectorField
Group
grpOutletBoundaryConditions
Description
This boundary condition adjusts the velocity for the given phase to achieve
the specified mean thus causing the phase-fraction to adjust according to
the mass flow rate.
Typical usage is as the outlet condition for a towing-tank ship simulation
to maintain the outlet water level at the level as the inlet.
\heading Patch usage
\table
Property | Description | Required | Default value
Umean | mean velocity normal to the boundary [m/s] | yes |
alpha | phase-fraction field | yes |
\endtable
Example of the boundary condition specification:
\verbatim
myPatch
{
type outletPhaseMeanVelocity;
Umean 1.2;
alpha alpha.water;
value uniform (1.2 0 0);
}
\endverbatim
