The contents of a VOF data input file are listed here:
Header line: These are comment lines for memo or information purposes. More than one line is allowed, but they must begin with "#". Header lines must start from the first line of the file and they are only allowed at the beginning of the file.
VOF data sets at a series of time points: A data set for a given time starts with the time value (unit: second), followed by the integral data and per-cell data for each nozzle hole. The time value line must start with string "Time", followed by the time value. In the example shown in the figure and example,Figure 1: VOF input data file components and Example 1: VOF input data file, divided into left and right halves of the file listing., respectively, the VOF injector involves two nozzles. Figure 2: Sample VOF input data file - image of complete file contents and format demonstrates how the left and right half of the fie listings in Example 1: VOF input data file, divided into left and right halves of the file listing. should be assembled. For each nozzle, the integral data include the total mass (liquid and vapor) and total liquid mass crossing the coupling plane since the previous time point, cavitation coefficient, nozzle diameter, turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), dissipation rate (EPS), and liquid temperature. The per-cell data include the total number of VOF cells, coordinates and velocity components, liquid volume fraction, liquid mass, TKE, EPS, and temperature defined at each cell. SI units should be used for all parameters.
