rotatingPressureInletOutletVelocityFvPatchVectorField Class Reference

This velocity inlet/outlet boundary condition is applied to patches in a rotating frame where the pressure is specified. A zero-gradient is applied for outflow (as defined by the flux); for inflow, the velocity is obtained from the flux with a direction normal to the patch faces. More...

Detailed Description

This velocity inlet/outlet boundary condition is applied to patches in a rotating frame where the pressure is specified. A zero-gradient is applied for outflow (as defined by the flux); for inflow, the velocity is obtained from the flux with a direction normal to the patch faces.

Usage
Property Description Required Default value
phi flux field name no phi
tangentialVelocity tangential velocity field no
origin origin of rotation in Cartesian co-ordinates yes
axis axis of rotation yes
omega angular velocity of the frame no

Example of the boundary condition specification:

    <patchName>
    {
        type            rotatingPressureInletOutletVelocity;
        phi             phi;
        tangentialVelocity uniform (0 0 0);
        origin          (0 0 0);
        axis            (0 0 1);
        omega           100 [rpm];
    }

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

Note: Sign conventions:

  • positive flux (out of domain): apply zero-gradient condition
  • negative flux (into of domain): derive from the flux in the patch-normal direction
