Class
    Foam::fv::velocityDampingConstraint
 
Group
    grpFvOptionsConstraints
 
Description
    Constrain given velocity fields to dampen velocity
    fluctuations exceeding a given value within a specified region.
 
    This constraint is primarily used to dampen velocity fluctuations in
    the start-up phase of simulations. When the local velocity magnitude
    exceeds the user-supplied maximum value a sink term is activated in
    the affected region to lower the velocity to the limiting value.
 
    Constraints applied to:
    \verbatim
      U    | Velocity                   [m/s]
    \endverbatim
 
    Required fields:
    \verbatim
      U    | Velocity                   [m/s]
    \endverbatim
 
Usage
    Minimal example by using \c constant/fvOptions:
    \verbatim
    velocityDampingConstraint1
    {
        // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
        type            velocityDampingConstraint;
 
        // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
        UMax            200;
 
        // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
        UNames          (<Uname1> <Uname2> ... <UnameN>);
        C               <scalar>;
 
        // Conditional optional entries (runtime modifiable)
 
            // when UNames entry is not present
            U               U;
 
        // Mandatory/Optional (inherited) entries
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property  | Description                           | Type   | Reqd  | Dflt
      type      | Type name: velocityDampingConstraint  | word   | yes   | -
      UMax      | Maximum velocity magnitude            | scalar | yes   | -
      UNames    | Names of operand velocity fields      | wordList | no  | -
      U         | Name of operand velocity field        | word   | cndtnl | U
      C         | Model factor                          | scalar | no    | 1
    \endtable
 
    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
      - \link fvOption.H \endlink
      - \link cellSetOption.H \endlink
      - \link writeFile.H \endlink
 
Note
  - When active, this constraint manipulates the system of equations.
    Users should ensure that it is not active when the case is converged
    (steady-state) or during the period of interest (transient) to ensure
    that its presence does not pollute the results.
