<UL><LI><I>number1</I> = minimum limit for voidfraction
<LI><I>number2</I> = (optional) scaling of the particle volume to account for porosity or agglomerations.
</UL>

<P><B>Description:</B>
</P>
<P>The centre voidFraction model calculates the voidfraction in a CFD cell accounting for the volume of the particles whose centres are inside the cell.
</P>
<P>The particle volume occupied in the CFD domain can be adjusted by the parameter "weight", using Vparticle=dsphere^3*pi/6*weight.
</P>
<P><B>Restrictions:</B> none.
