In order to increase the flexibility of the wave library, the mean flow
handling has been removed from the waveSuperposition class. This makes
waveSuperposition work purely in terms of perturbations to a mean
background flow.
The input has also been split, with waves now defined as region-wide
settings in constant/waveProperties. The mean flow parameters are sill
defined by the boundary conditions.
The new format of the velocity boundary is much simpler. Only a mean
flow velocity is required.
In 0/U:
boundaryField
{
inlet
{
type waveVelocity;
UMean (2 0 0);
}
// etc ...
}
Other wave boundary conditions have not changed.
The constant/waveProperties file contains the wave model selections and
the settings to define the associated coordinate system and scaling
functions:
In constant/waveProperties:
origin (0 0 0);
direction (1 0 0);
waves
(
Airy
{
length 300;
amplitude 2.5;
phase 0;
angle 0;
}
);
scale table ((1200 1) (1800 0));
crossScale constant 1;
setWaves has been changed to use a system/setWavesDict file rather than
relying on command-line arguments. It also now requires a mean velocity
to be specified in order to prevent ambiguities associated with multiple
inlet patches. An example is shown below:
In system/setWavesDict:
alpha alpha.water;
U U;
liquid true;
UMean (1 0 0);
