Detailed Description

Transforms the specified velocity field into a cylindrical polar coordinate system or back to Cartesian.

Example of function object specification to convert the velocity field U into cylindrical polar coordinates before averaging and returning the average to Cartesian coordinates:

cartesianToCylindrical
{
    type        cylindrical;
    libs        ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");

    origin      (0 0 0);
    axis        (0 0 1);

    field       U;

    writeControl    writeTime;
    writeInterval   1;
}

#includeFunc fieldAverage(cylindrical(U))

cylindricalToCartesian
{
    type        cylindrical;
    libs        ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");

    origin      (0 0 0);
    axis        (0 0 1);

    field       cylindrical(U)Mean;
    toCartesian true;
    result      UMean;

    writeControl    writeTime;
    writeInterval   1;
}

This is particularly useful for cases with rotating regions, e.g. mixer vessels with NCC.
