specularRadiation

Description

The specularRadiation is a mixed boundary condition that provides a specular radiation condition for axisymmetric and symmetry-plane fvDOM computations.

Usage

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

Boundary file

<patchName>
{
    type            patch;
    ...
}

Field file

<patchName>
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type            specularRadiation;

    // Optional entries
    interpolate         <bool>;

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

where:

Property	Description	Type	Required	Default
type	Type name: specularRadiation	word	yes	-
interpolate	Flag to enable ray-intensity interp	bool	no	false

The inherited entries are elaborated in:
