Detailed Description

Writes out the size distribution determined by a population balance model, either for the entire domain or a cell zone. Requires solver post- processing.

The following function object specification for example returns the volume- based number density function:

Example of function object specification:

numberDensity
{
    type                populationBalanceSizeDistribution;
    libs                ("libmultiphaseEulerFunctionObjects.so");
    writeControl        writeTime;
    populationBalance   bubbles;
    functionType        numberDensity;
    coordinateType      volume;
    setFormat           raw;
}
Usage
