Class Foam::functionObjects::age Description Calculates and writes out the time taken for a particle to travel from an inlet to the location. Solves the following equation when incompressible: \f[ \div (\phi t) = 1 \f] where: \vartable t | Age [s] \phi | Volumetric flux [m^3/s] \endvartable Boundary conditions are generated automatically as zeroGradient on all walls and inletOutlet everywhere else.
