Description🔗
The surfaceInterpolate
function object
linearly interpolates volume fields to generate surface fields.
Operands🔗
Operand | Type | Location |
---|---|---|
input | vol<Type>Field |
$FOAM_CASE/<time>/<inpField> |
output file | - | - |
output field | surface<Type>Field |
$FOAM_CASE/<time>/<outField> |
where <Type>=Scalar/Vector/SphericalTensor/SymmTensor/Tensor
.
Usage🔗
Example of the surfaceInterpolate
function object
by using functions
sub-dictionary in system/controlDict
file:
surfaceInterpolate1
{
// Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
type surfaceInterpolate;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
// Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
fields ((<inpField1> <outField1>) ... (<inpFieldN> <outFieldN>));
// Optional (inherited) entries
region region0;
enabled true;
log true;
timeStart 0;
timeEnd 1000;
executeControl timeStep;
executeInterval 1;
writeControl timeStep;
writeInterval 1;
}
where the entries mean:
Property | Description | Type | Required | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
type | Type name: surfaceInterpolate | word | yes | - |
libs | Library name: fieldFunctionObjects | word | yes | - |
fields | Names of operand and output fields | wordList | yes | - |
