SlipWall

class SlipWall

Bases: BoundaryBase

SlipWall class defines the SlipWall boundary condition.

Example

Define SlipWall boundary condition for entities with the naming pattern:

"*/slipWall" in the volume mesh.

>>> fl.SlipWall(entities=volume_mesh["*/slipWall"]

• Define SlipWall boundary condition with automated farfield symmetry plane boundaries:

  >>> auto_farfield = fl.AutomatedFarfield()
  >>> fl.SlipWall(
  ...     entities=[auto_farfield.symmetry_planes],
  ...     turbulence_quantities= fl.TurbulenceQuantities(
  ...         modified_viscosity_ratio=10,
  ...     )
  ... )
