This boundary condition is applied to the flow velocity, to simulate the opening or closure of a baffle due to area averaged pressure or force delta, between both sides of the baffle. This is achieved by merging the behaviours of wall and cyclic baffles. More...

This boundary condition is applied to the flow velocity, to simulate the opening or closure of a baffle due to area averaged pressure or force delta, between both sides of the baffle. This is achieved by merging the behaviours of wall and cyclic baffles.
The baffle joins two mesh regions, where the open fraction determines the interpolation weights applied to each cyclic- and neighbour-patch contribution. This means that this is boundary condition is meant to be used in an extra wall beyond an existing cyclic patch pair.
The baffle is activated when the area weighted pressure difference between master and slave patches is larger then minThresholdValue.
Once the threshold is crossed, the baffle is activated and continues to open or close at a fixed rate using
where
![]() | = | baffle open fraction [0-1] |
![]() | = | baffle open fraction on previous evaluation |
![]() | = | sign for orientation: 1 to open or -1 to close |
![]() | = | simulation time step |
![]() | = | time taken to open the baffle |
The open fraction is then applied to scale the patch areas.
Property | Description | Required | Default |
---|---|---|---|
p | Pressure field name | no | p |
cyclicPatch | Cyclic patch name | yes | |
openFraction | Current open fraction [0-1] | yes | |
openingTime | Time taken to open or close the baffle | yes | |
maxOpenFractionDelta | max fraction change per timestep | yes | |
minThresholdValue | Min absolute pressure or force difference for activation | yes | |
forceBased | Force (true) or pressure-based (false) activation | yes | |
opening | Baffle is opening (true) or closing (false) | yes |
Example of the boundary condition specification:
<patchName> { type activePressureForceBaffleVelocity; p p; cyclicPatch cyclic1; openFraction 0.2; openingTime 5.0; maxOpenFractionDelta 0.1; minThresholdValue 0.01; forceBased false; opening true; }

Map (and resize as needed) from self given a mapping object.
Note: cannot map field from cyclic patch anyway so just recalculate
Areas should be consistent when doing autoMap except in case of topo changes. Note: we don't want to use Sf here since triggers rebuilding of fvMesh::S() which will give problems when mapped (since already on new mesh)
