Class
Foam::fv::massSource
Description
This fvModel applies a mass source to the continuity equation and to all
field equations. It can be applied to compressible solvers, such as fluid,
isothermalFluid, compressibleVoF and multiphaseEuler. For incompressible
solvers, use the volumeSource model instead.
This model requires a corresponding field source to be specified for all
solved-for fields.
Usage
Example usage for a constant mass flow rate applied to a cell set:
\verbatim
massSource
{
type massSource;
cellZone massSource;
massFlowRate 1e-4;
}
\endverbatim
Example usage for a pulsing flow rate applied at a point:
\verbatim
massSource
{
type massSource;
cellZone
{
type containsPoints;
points ((2.75 0.5 0));
}
massFlowRate
{
type scale;
scale squarePulse;
start 0.2;
duration 2;
value 1e-4;
}
}
\endverbatim
