FVBodyForce
Description
FVBodyForce
implements a force term in momentum transport or structural mechanics or a source term in species/mass transport. The strong form, given a domain is defined as
where is the source term (negative if a sink) and the second term on the left hand side represents the strong forms of other kernels.
The Jacobian term for this kernel is zero: , since it is assumed that is not** a function of the unknown .
The force is constructed through a user supplied constant , function value evaluated at the current time and quadrature point , and/or postprocessor value . The constant , supplied through the parameter value
, may also be controlled over the course of a transient simulation with a Controls
block. , , are supplied through the input parameters value
, function
, and postprocessor
respectively. Not supplying , , or through its corresponding parameter is equivalent to setting its value to unity.
Example Syntax
The case below demonstrates the use of FVBodyForce
where the force term is supplied based upon a function form:
[FVKernels]
[diff]
type = FVDiffusion
variable = u
coeff = coeff
[]
[force]
type = FVBodyForce
variable = u
function = force
