Chapter 11: report/

report/calc-exchange-data-on-zone-types

Enables the collection of detailed information about DPM evaporated mass for selected zone types. Zone type choices include "none", "lagr-wall-film-zones", "cell-zones" (for free-stream particles), and "all-zones".

report/dpm-extended-summary

Create an extended discrete phase summary report of the discrete phase injection(s). You can choose whether you want to save the extended report to a file or print it in the console window. For unsteady tracking, you will be asked whether you want to include in-domain particle/tracks in the report. You will be also prompted whether you want to select a single injection for the summary report. By default, all injections are included. The output depends on whether you have enabled the report/dpm-zone-summaries-per-injection? text command, in which case additional information is printed for escaped particles, such as per-injection data. Note that, for unsteady particle tracking, it is necessary to enable the report/dpm-zone-summaries-per-injection? text command before any particle parcels are injected into the domain.
