5.1 Parcels

5.1.1 Extended Thermo Parcel

Provides a variant of thermoCloud with varying specific heat.

Important: this extension currently support a single solid phase which needs to be a tabulatedSolid as provided in the thermophysical properties below. This will need to be generalized at some point.

Extending a parcel requires several templates to be adapted. The following building blocks are present in the implementation of extendedThermoCloud:

• Parcel template class in found in ExtendedThermoParcel

• The derived parcel instantiation extendedThermoParcel

• The derived cloud instantiation extendedThermoCloud

Or in a tree view:

parcel
├── clouds
│   └── derived
│       └── extendedThermoCloud
│           ├── extendedThermoCloud.C
│           └── extendedThermoCloud.H
└── parcels
    ├── Templates
    │   └── ExtendedThermoParcel
    │       ├── ExtendedThermoParcel.C
    │       ├── ExtendedThermoParcel.H
    │       ├── ExtendedThermoParcelI.H
    │       ├── ExtendedThermoParcelIO.C
    │       ├── ExtendedThermoParcelName.C
    │       └── ExtendedThermoParcelTrackingDataI.H
    └── derived
        └── extendedThermoParcel
            ├── extendedThermoParcel.H
            └── makeExtendedThermoParcelSubmodels.C

For using it, append the following to controlDict (it depends on extended thermophysical properties so that non-constant properties are supported):

libs
(
    "libextendedThermophysicalProperties.so"
    "libextendedLagrangianParcel.so"
);
