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] yes

Example of the boundary condition specification:

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

The omega entry is a Function1 of time, see Foam::Function1s.
