Class

Foam::surfaceInterpolate

Group grpFieldFunctionObjects

Description

This function object linearly interpolates volume fields to generate surface fields

Fields are stored

• every time step the field is updated with new values
• at output it writes the fields

This functionObject can either be used

• to calculate a new field as a post-processing step or
• since the fields are registered, used in another functionObject

Example of function object specification:

surfaceInterpolate1
{
        type        surfaceInterpolate;
        libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
        ...
        fields      ((p pNear)(U UNear));
}

Usage

    Property | Description               | Required    | Default value
    type     | type name: nearWallFields | yes         |
    fields   | list of fields with correspoding output field names | yes |
