This function object reports the height of the interface above a set of locations. For each location, it writes the vertical distance of the interface above both the location and the lowest boundary. It also writes the point on the interface from which these heights are computed. It uses an integral approach, so if there are multiple interfaces above or below a location then this method will generate average values. More...

Detailed Description

This function object reports the height of the interface above a set of locations. For each location, it writes the vertical distance of the interface above both the location and the lowest boundary. It also writes the point on the interface from which these heights are computed. It uses an integral approach, so if there are multiple interfaces above or below a location then this method will generate average values.

Example of function object specification:

interfaceHeight1
{
    type           interfaceHeight;
    libs           ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
    alpha          alpha.water;
    locations      ((0 0 0) (10 0 0) (20 0 0));
}

Usage

Property	Description	Required	Default value
`type`	type name	yes
`alpha`	name of the alpha field	no	alpha
`locations`	list of locations to report the height at	yes
`liquid`	is the alpha field that of the liquid	no	true
