functionObjects::icoUncoupledKinematicCloud: tracks a uncoupled kinematic particle cloud
Description This Foam::functionObject tracks a uncoupled kinematic particle cloud in the specified velocity field of an incompressible flow (laminar, RANS or LES). It may be used in conjunction with any transient single-phase incompressible flow solver such as \c pisoFoam or \c pimpleFoam and tracks the particles or parcels without affecting the the flow-field. The \c kinematicCloud requires the the density of the fluid which is looked-up from \c constant/transportProperties dictionary and the acceleration due to gravity which is read from the \c constant/g file if present or defaults to zero. The \c kinematicCloud properties are read from the \c constant/kinematicCloudProperties dictionary in the usual manner. Example of function object specification: \verbatim tracks { libs ("liblagrangianFunctionObjects.so"); type icoUncoupledKinematicCloud; } \endverbatim \heading Function object usage \table Property | Description | Required | Default value type | Type name: icoUncoupledKinematicCloud | yes | U | Name of the velocity field | no | U kinematicCloud | Name of the kinematicCloud | no | kinematicCloud \endtable
