An enumeration has been added to the arguments of the allocation
coefficient function, eta, to allow specification of how to allocate out
of bounds of the population balance size-groups. There are two options:
- "Clamp" will create an out-of-bounds allocation coefficient of exactly
one. This partitions unity across all size-space.
- "Extrapolate" will create an out-of-bounds allocation coefficient in
proportion to the ratio between the given size and the nearest
size-group size. This does not partition unity outside the range of
the size-groups.
The previous operation is equivalent to "Extrapolate".
It is not yet clear which method is preferable and under what
circumstances. More testing is required. The enumeration has been
created to facilitate this testing.
for thermophysical transport within stationary solid phases. This provides a
consistent interface to heat transport within solids for single and now
multiphase solvers so that for example the wallHeatFlux functionObject can now
be used with multiphaseEuler, see tutorials/multiphaseEuler/boilingBed.
Also this development supports anisotropic thermal conductivity within the
stationary solid regions which was not possible previously.
The tutorials/multiphaseEuler/bed and tutorials/multiphaseEuler/boilingBed
tutorial cases have been updated for phaseSolidThermophysicalTransportModel by
changing the thermo type in physicalProperties.solid to heSolidThermo. This
change will need to be made to all multiphaseEuler cases involving stationary
phases.
This change makes multiphaseEuler more consistent with other modules and
makes its sub-libraries less inter-dependent. Some left-over references
to multiphaseEulerFoam have also been removed.
