Name

OOF.Mesh.Boundary_Conditions.Set_BC_Initializer — Set the initial value of a floating boundary condition.

Synopsis

OOF.Mesh.Boundary_Conditions.Set_BC_Initializer(mesh, bc, initializer)

Details

  • Parent Menu: OOF.Mesh.Boundary_Conditions
  • Callback: function setBCInit in module ooflib.engine.IO.boundaryconditionmenu

  • Parameters:

    mesh
    Type: The path to an existing Mesh object.
    bc
    Name of the boundary condition to initialize Type: A character string.
    initializer
    How the boundary condition is to be initialized. Type: An object of the FloatBCInitMethod class.

Description

In a time dependent problem, the initial value of a floating boundary condition needs to be assigned, just like the initial value of a field. The boundary condition is a function of position along the boundary with an unspecified time-dependent offset. The initializer is a FloatBCInitMethod object that determines the initial value of the offset. It can specify the minimum, maximum, or average value of the field on the boundary at the initial time.
