Class Foam::fixedGradientFvPatchField Description This boundary condition supplies a fixed gradient condition, such that the patch values are calculated using: \f[ x_p = x_c + \frac{\nabla(x)}{\Delta} \f] where \vartable x_p | patch values x_c | internal field values \nabla(x)| gradient (user-specified) \Delta | inverse distance from patch face centre to cell centre \endvartable Usage \table Property | Description | Required | Default value gradient | gradient | yes | \endtable Example of the boundary condition specification: \verbatim { type fixedGradient; gradient uniform 0; } \endverbatim SourceFiles fixedGradientFvPatchField.C \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ #ifndef fixedGradientFvPatchField_H #define fixedGradientFvPatchField_H #include "fvPatchField.H" // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // namespace Foam { /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ Class fixedGradientFvPatchField Declaration \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ template class fixedGradientFvPatchField : public fvPatchField { // Private Data Field gradient_; public: //- Runtime type information TypeName("fixedGradient"); // Constructors //- Construct from patch and internal field fixedGradientFvPatchField ( const fvPatch&, const DimensionedField& ); //- Construct from patch, internal field and dictionary fixedGradientFvPatchField ( const fvPatch&, const DimensionedField&, const dictionary&, const bool gradientRequired=true ); //- Construct by mapping the given fixedGradientFvPatchField // onto a new patch fixedGradientFvPatchField ( const fixedGradientFvPatchField&, const fvPatch&, const DimensionedField&, const fieldMapper&, const bool mappingRequired=true ); //- Disallow copy without setting internal field reference fixedGradientFvPatchField ( const fixedGradientFvPatchField& ) = delete; //- Copy constructor setting internal field reference fixedGradientFvPatchField ( const fixedGradientFvPatchField&, const DimensionedField& ); //- Construct and return a clone setting internal field reference virtual tmp> clone ( const DimensionedField& iF ) const { return tmp> ( new fixedGradientFvPatchField(*this, iF) ); } // Member Functions using fvPatchField::patch; using fvPatchField::patchInternalField; // Return defining fields //- Return gradient at boundary virtual Field& gradient() { return gradient_; } virtual const Field& gradient() const { return gradient_; } // Mapping functions //- Map the given fvPatchField onto this fvPatchField virtual void map(const fvPatchField&, const fieldMapper&); //- Reset the fvPatchField to the given fvPatchField // Used for mesh to mesh mapping virtual void reset(const fvPatchField&); // Evaluation functions //- Return gradient at boundary virtual tmp> snGrad() const { return gradient_; } //- Evaluate the patch field virtual void evaluate ( const Pstream::commsTypes commsType = Pstream::commsTypes::blocking ); //- Return the matrix diagonal coefficients corresponding to the // evaluation of the value of this patchField with given weights virtual tmp> valueInternalCoeffs ( const tmp& ) const; //- Return the matrix source coefficients corresponding to the // evaluation of the value of this patchField with given weights virtual tmp> valueBoundaryCoeffs ( const tmp& ) const; //- Return the matrix diagonal coefficients corresponding to the // evaluation of the gradient of this patchField virtual tmp> gradientInternalCoeffs() const; //- Return the matrix source coefficients corresponding to the // evaluation of the gradient of this patchField virtual tmp> gradientBoundaryCoeffs() const; //- Write virtual void write(Ostream&) const; // Member Operators //- Inherit assignment using fvPatchField::operator=; }; // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // } // End namespace Foam // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // #ifdef NoRepository #include "fixedGradientFvPatchField.C" #endif // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // #endif // ************************************************************************* //
