Detailed Description

This boundary condition adjusts the velocity for the given phase to achieve the specified mean thus causing the phase-fraction to adjust according to the mass flow rate.

Typical usage is as the outlet condition for a towing-tank ship simulation to maintain the outlet water level at the level as the inlet.

Usage

Property	Description	Required	Default value
`Umean`	mean velocity normal to the boundary [m/s]	yes
`alpha`	phase-fraction field	yes

Example of the boundary condition specification:

    <patchName>
    {
        type            outletPhaseMeanVelocity;
        Umean           1.2;
        alpha           alpha.water;
        value           uniform (1.2 0 0);
    }
