Detailed Description

Condition on velocity for a boundary consisting of a rotating solid of revolution, e.g. cylinder. Calculates a tangential component of velocity from the angular velocity and rotational axis and ensures a zero normal component.

Usage

Property	Description	Required	Default value
origin	origin of rotation in Cartesian co-ordinates	yes
axis	axis of rotation	yes
omega	angular velocity of the frame [rad/s]	no
rpm	angular velocity of the frame [rpm]	no

Example of the boundary condition specification:

    <patchName>
    {
        type            rotatingWallVelocity;
        origin          (0 0 0);
        axis            (0 0 1);
        rpm             100;
    }

The omega or rpm entries are Function1 of time, see Foam::Function1s.
