Class
    Foam::fv::massSource
 
Description
    This fvModel applies a mass source to the continuity equation and to all
    field equations. It can be applied to compressible solvers, such as fluid,
    isothermalFluid, compressibleVoF and multiphaseEuler. For incompressible
    solvers, use the volumeSource model instead.
 
    This model requires a corresponding field source to be specified for all
    solved-for fields.
 
Usage
    Example usage for a constant mass flow rate applied to a cell set:
    \verbatim
    massSource
    {
        type            massSource;
 
        cellZone        massSource;
 
        massFlowRate    1e-4;
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    Example usage for a pulsing flow rate applied at a point:
    \verbatim
    massSource
    {
        type            massSource;
 
        cellZone
        {
            type            containsPoints;
            points          ((2.75 0.5 0));
        }
 
        massFlowRate
        {
            type            scale;
            scale           squarePulse;
            start           0.2;
            duration        2;
            value           1e-4;
        }
    }
    \endverbatim
