SteadyVelocityField¶
Steady Velocity Field Generator
SteadyVelocityField
class inherited fromBaseGenerator
The object creates a steady velocity field with the velocity and flow direction specified by the user.
To call this generator, the
generator_id = SteadyVelocityField
shall be used. This is parsed as the value for thevelocity_field_generator
key in the desired aerodynamic solver’s settings.Parameters: in_dict (dict) – Input data in the form of dictionary. See acceptable entries below:
Name Type Description Default u_inf
float
