Class
Foam::emptyFvPatchField
Description
This boundary condition provides an 'empty' condition for reduced
dimensions cases, i.e. 1- and 2-D geometries. Apply this condition to
patches whose normal is aligned to geometric directions that do not
constitute solution directions.
Usage
Example of the boundary condition specification:
\verbatim
{
type empty;
}
\endverbatim
