mappedVelocityFluxFixedValue

Description

The mappedVelocityFluxFixedValue is a velocity boundary condition that maps the velocity and flux from a neighbour patch to this patch.

Usage

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

Boundary file

<patchName>
{
    type            mappedPatch;
    ...
}

Field file

<patchName>
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type                mappedVelocityFluxFixedValue;

    // Optional entries
    phi                 <word>;

    // Inherited entries
    ...
}

where:

Property	Description	Type	Required	Default
type	Type name: mappedVelocityFluxFixedValue	word	yes	-
phi	Name of the flux field	word	no	phi

The inherited entries are elaborated in:

• This boundary condition can only be applied to patches that are of the mappedPolyPatch type.
