Detailed Description

Point injection model. This injects particles continuously at a point with a given number rate. The point and the number rate are both Function1-s and can both vary with time.

Note that this model only controls the number and position of injected Lagrangian particles. All physical properties are specified by corresponding source conditions. So the velocity/direction/angle/etc..., is controlled by the velocity source condition, the size distribution by the diameter source condition, and the flow rate by the number source condition.

Usage
Property Description Required? Default
point The position at which to inject yes
numberRate The number of particles to inject per unit time yes

Example specification: 

    <LagrangianModelName>
    {
        type        pointInjection;
        point       (1 2 3) [cm];
        numberRate  10000;
    }
