Class
Foam::functionObjects::interfaceHeight
Description
This function object reports the height of the interface above a set of
locations. For each location, it writes the vertical distance of the
interface above both the location and the lowest boundary. It also writes
the point on the interface from which these heights are computed. It uses
an integral approach, so if there are multiple interfaces above or below a
location then this method will generate average values.
Example of function object specification:
\verbatim
interfaceHeight1
{
type interfaceHeight;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
alpha alpha.water;
locations ((0 0 0) (10 0 0) (20 0 0));
}
\endverbatim
Usage
\table
Property | Description | Required | Default value
type | type name | yes |
alpha | name of the alpha field | no | alpha
locations | list of locations to report the height at | yes |
liquid | is the alpha field that of the liquid | no | true
\endtable
