Description

The waveAlpha is a boundary condition that establishes the phase fraction by combining multiple wave models.

Usage

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

Boundary file 

<patchName>
{
    type            patch;
    ...
}

Field file 

<patchName>
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type            waveAlpha;

    // Optional entries
    waveDict        <word>;

    // Inherited entries
    ...
}

where:

Property Description Type Required Default
type Type name: waveAlpha word yes -
waveDict Name of the wave variables dictionary word no -

The inherited entries are elaborated in:

  • fixedValueFvPatchField.H
  • waveModel.H
