The cloudInfo function object generates statistics for a list of clouds, including:

• number of parcels
• total mass of parcels
• maximum diameter
• Arithmetic mean diameter, \(D_{10}\)
• Sauter mean diameter, \(D_{32}\)

Usage🔗

The cloudInfo function object is specified using:

cloudInfo1
{
    type        cloudInfo;
    libs        ("liblagrangianFunctionObjects.so");

    clouds      (kinematicCloud1  thermoCloud1);
}

Sample output🔗

cloudInfo cloudInfo1 write:
    number of parcels : 1234
    mass in system    : 1.234
    maximum diameter  : 1.0
    D10 diameter      : 0.5
    D32 diameter      : 0.6
