Detailed Description

Velocity inlet boundary condition creating axial, radial and tangential velocity fields specified by functions of time and radius or by a given angular speed.

Usage
Property Description Required Default value
origin Origin of rotation no patch centre
axis Axis of rotation no patch normal
axialVelocity Axial velocity [m/s] yes
radialVelocity Radial velocity [m/s] yes
omega Angular velocity of the frame no
tangentialVelocity Tangential velocity [m/s] no

Example of the boundary condition specification:

    <patchName>
    {
        type            swirlInletVelocity;
        origin          (0 0 0);
        axis            (0 0 1);
        axialVelocity   constant 30;
        radialVelocity  constant 10;
        tangentialVelocity  constant 100;
    }

The axialVelocity, radialVelocity and tangentialVelocity entries are Function2 of time and radius, see see Foam::Function2s. The omega is a Function1 of time, see Foam::Function1s.
