Properties🔗
Applied pairs in reduced dimension cases to represent the directions that are not solved, i.e.:
- 1-D: sides of the 1-D stack of cells
- 2-D: front and back planes

The condition requires entries in both the boundary
and field files. Mesh
boundary
file:
<patchName>
{
type empty;
...
}
Field file:

- Separation between
empty
patch pairs must be- a single layer of cells
- cells should be uniform thickness in the non-solved direction, and
- points should appear collocated when viewed in the patch normal direction
