VectorVelocityIC

This object computes a component of a vector-valued velocity in the direction of a 1-D element from a scalar velocity function.

It computes: ui=uddiu_i = u_d d_i where uu is the velocity vector, d\mathbf{d} is the unit direction vector of the element where this IC is being applied, and udu_d is a user-provided function for the component of velocity in the direction d\mathbf{d}.

Input Parameters

  • componentThe vector component of interest

    C++ Type:unsigned int

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:The vector component of interest

  • variableThe variable this initial condition is supposed to provide values for.

    C++ Type:VariableName

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:The variable this initial condition is supposed to provide values for.

  • vel_fnVelocity function name

    C++ Type:FunctionName

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:Velocity function name

Required Parameters

  • blockThe list of blocks (ids or names) that this object will be applied

    C++ Type:std::vector<SubdomainName>

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:The list of blocks (ids or names) that this object will be applied

  • boundaryThe list of boundaries (ids or names) from the mesh where this object applies

    C++ Type:std::vector<BoundaryName>

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:The list of boundaries (ids or names) from the mesh where this object applies

  • prop_getter_suffixAn optional suffix parameter that can be appended to any attempt to retrieve/get material properties. The suffix will be prepended with a '_' character.

    C++ Type:MaterialPropertyName

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:An optional suffix parameter that can be appended to any attempt to retrieve/get material properties. The suffix will be prepended with a '_' character.

  • use_interpolated_stateFalseFor the old and older state use projected material properties interpolated at the quadrature points. To set up projection use the ProjectedStatefulMaterialStorageAction.

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:For the old and older state use projected material properties interpolated at the quadrature points. To set up projection use the ProjectedStatefulMaterialStorageAction.

Optional Parameters

  • control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

    C++ Type:std::vector<std::string>

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

  • enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.

    Default:True

    C++ Type:bool

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.

  • ignore_uo_dependencyFalseWhen set to true, a UserObject retrieved by this IC will not be executed before the this IC

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Unit:(no unit assumed)

    Controllable:No

    Description:When set to true, a UserObject retrieved by this IC will not be executed before the this IC
