Particle Sink

All particles that enter the geometry are removed from the system.

In this model, the sink is activated at 1 second. From that time on, particles that enter the child geometry will be removed from the system.

General

Start Time

s | The time at which particles will start to be removed within the injection geometry.

Stop Time Option

s | The options for when particles will stop being removed within the injection geometry.

End of Simulation

Particles will be removed within the injection geometry until the end of the simulation.

Specified

The user inputs a specified time.

Stop Time

s | The time at which particles will stop being removed within the injection geometry.

Particle Sink Toolbar

Context-Specific Toolbar Forms

Description

addG Add Geometry

The Add Geometry form adds child geometry by importing from external CAD files, extracting from external CAD assemblies, or defining internally using built-in parametric geometry.

move Move

The Move form enables three-dimensional rigid body transform of object through free drag or point-to-point snapping.

rotate Rotate

The Rotate form enables three-dimensional rotation of geometry.

scale Scale

The Scale form enables volumetric scaling of a geometry about a set anchor point.

mate Mate

The Mate form allows surface-to-surface mating and alignment.

inj Add Particle Injection

The Add Particle Injection adds an injection to a particle parent.

bctab Edit BC Table

The Edit Boundary Conditions Table edits the fluid types (in tabular form) associated with each boundary condition.

cp Diagnostics

The Diagnostics form reports the position, orientation, and moments of inertia associated with a static body.
