inj Add Particle Injection

Introduction

This functionality allows users to define custom particle injections with local injection rates, particle size distributions, and initial particle compositions that differ from those defined on the particle parent. Whereas children geometry attached to the parent inherit the size distribution, composition, and injection characteristics defined by the parent, particle injections allow for differentiated particle injection characteristics within a particle family.

Access

A particle injection can only be added to an extant particle parent. Select Add Particle Injection on the context-specific toolbar, and a new Add Geometry window will launch, and after you select your specifications, the particle injection property grid will appear.
