Description

The fixedJump is a general coupled boundary condition to provide a jump cyclic condition. The jump is specified as a fixed value field, applied as an offset to the β€˜owner’ patch.

Usage

The condition requires entries in both the boundary and field files.

Boundary file

<patchName>
{
    type            patch;
    ...
}

Field file

<patchName>
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type            fixedJump;
    jump            <Field<Type>>;

    // Optional entries
    jump0           <Field<Type>>;
    minJump         <Type>;
    relax           <scalar>;

    // Inherited entries
    patchType       <word>;
    ...
}
