MachLine Velocity Inputs

Open nathanboachie opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Hi, In a report I read, someone stated they were able to provide a velocity field to Machline with velocities at given control points on a body to the program?

Is this possible in this iteration as I can't seem to find documentation on how to do so, if so how can I?

Thanks for the help

As in, inputting velocities to provide custom boundary conditions? That is not possible in the current version. What report is this you're referencing?

A student report written by someone at my University, not published or anything. They've said in their report they provide velocities at control points on the body of a fuselage, where the freestream velocity designated in the input file is added to to generate a specific velocity field

I'm not aware of such a feature. Perhaps they altered the source code themselves?

They had altered the source code to take the velocities. Thanks for the help.
