Description
Transforms the specified velocity field into a
cylindrical polar coordinate system or back to Cartesian.
Example of function object specification to convert the velocity field U
into cylindrical polar coordinates before averaging and returning the
average to Cartesian coordinates:
\verbatim
cartesianToCylindrical
{
type cylindrical;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
origin (0 0 0);
axis (0 0 1);
field U;
writeControl outputTime;
writeInterval 1;
}
#includeFunc fieldAverage(cylindrical(U))
cylindricalToCartesian
{
type cylindrical;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
origin (0 0 0);
axis (0 0 1);
field cylindrical(U)Mean;
toCartesian true;
result UMean;
writeControl outputTime;
writeInterval 1;
}
\endverbatim
This is particularly useful for cases with rotating regions, e.g. mixer
vessels with AMI.
