Class Foam::advectiveFvPatchField Group grpOutletBoundaryConditions Description This boundary condition provides an advective outflow condition, based on solving DDt(W, field) = 0 at the boundary where \c W is the wave velocity and \c field is the field to which this boundary condition is applied. The standard (Euler, backward, CrankNicolson, localEuler) time schemes are supported. Additionally an optional mechanism to relax the value at the boundary to a specified far-field value is provided which is switched on by specifying the relaxation length-scale \c lInf and the far-field value \c fieldInf. The flow/wave speed \c (w) at the outlet is provided by the virtual function advectionSpeed() the default implementation of which requires the name of the flux field \c (phi) and optionally the density \c (rho) if the mass-flux rather than the volumetric-flux is given. The flow/wave speed at the outlet can be changed by deriving a specialised BC from this class and over-riding advectionSpeed() e.g. in waveTransmissiveFvPatchField the advectionSpeed() calculates and returns the flow-speed plus the acoustic wave speed creating an acoustic wave transmissive boundary condition. Usage \table Property | Description | Required | Default value phi | flux field name | no | phi rho | density field name | no | rho fieldInf | value of field beyond patch | no | lInf | distance beyond patch for \c fieldInf | no | \endtable Example of the boundary condition specification: \verbatim { type advective; phi phi; } \endverbatim Note If \c lInf is specified, \c fieldInf will be required; \c rho is only required in the case of a mass-based flux.
