Class
Foam::freestreamVelocityFvPatchVectorField
Group
grpInletBoundaryConditions grpOutletBoundaryConditions
Description
This boundary condition provides a free-stream condition for velocity.
It is an inlet-outlet condition that uses the velocity orientation to
continuously blend between fixed value for normal inlet and zero gradient
for normal outlet flow.
Usage
\table
Property | Description | Required | Default value
freestreamValue | freestream velocity | yes |
\endtable
Example of the boundary condition specification:
\verbatim
{
type freestreamVelocity;
freestreamValue uniform (300 0 0);
}
\endverbatim
Note
This condition is designed to operate with the freestreamPressure condition
