Detailed Description

Calculates and writes out the time taken for a particle to travel from an inlet to the location. Solves the following equation when incompressible:

\[ \div (\phi t) = 1 \]

where:

$ t $ = Age [s]
$ \phi $ = Volumetric flux [m^3/s]

Boundary conditions are generated automatically as zeroGradient on all walls and inletOutlet everywhere else.

Usage
Property Description Required Default value
phi The name of the flux field no phi
rho The name of the density field no rho
nCorr The maximum number of correctors no 5
schemesField The name of the field from which schemes are taken no age
diffusion Switch to turn on/off the diffusion term no off
tolerance Solver residual control no 1e-5
