Detailed Description

Computes the spatial minimum and maximum extents of an input field.

The extents are derived from the bound box limits after identifying the locations where field values exceed the user-supplied threshold value.

Operands:

Operand Type Location
input - -
output file dat $FOAM_CASE/postProcessing/<FO>/<time>/<file>
output field - -
Usage
Minimal example by using system/controlDict.functions:
fieldExtents1
{
    // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
    type                fieldExtents;
    libs                (fieldFunctionObjects);

    // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
    fields              (<field1> <field2> ... <fieldN>);
    threshold           0.5;

    // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
    internalField       true;
    referencePosition   (0 0 0);

    // Optional (inherited) entries
    ...
}

where the entries mean:

Property Description Type Req'd Dflt
type Type name: fieldExtents word yes -
libs Library name: fieldFunctionObjects word yes -
threshold Value to identify extents boundary scalar yes -
fields List of operand fields wordList yes -
internalField Flag to process the internal field bool no true
referencePosition Reference position vector no (0 0 0)
patches List of patches to process wordList no <all patches>

The inherited entries are elaborated in:

Usage by the postProcess utility is not available.

Note
For non-scalar fields, the magnitude of the field is employed and compared to the value of threshold.
