Feature run time control triggers
Extends the runTimeControl
function object to set 'trigger' values, that can be used to start other function objects. For example, to run for 100 steps after the average drag coefficient converges (reported by a forceCoeffs
function object) the following could be used:
runTimeControl1
{
type runTimeControl;
libs ("libutilityFunctionObjects.so");
conditions
{
condition1
{
type average;
functionObject forceCoeffs1;
fields (Cd);
tolerance 1e-3;
window 20;
windowType exact;
}
}
satisfiedAction setTrigger;
trigger 1;
}
runTimeControl2
{
type runTimeControl;
libs ("libutilityFunctionObjects.so");
controlMode trigger;
triggerStart 1;
conditions
{
condition1
{
type maxDuration;
duration 100;
}
}
satisfiedAction end;
}
