Detailed Description

This function object reports the height of the interface above a set of locations.

For each location, it writes the vertical distance of the interface above both the location and the lowest boundary. It also writes the point on the interface from which these heights are computed. It uses an integral approach, so if there are multiple interfaces above or below a location then this method will generate average values.

Operands:

Operand	Type	Location
`input`	-	-
`output` file 1	dat	$FOAM_CASE/postProcessing/<FO>/<time>/height
`output` file 2	dat	$FOAM_CASE/postProcessing/<FO>/<time>/position
`output` field	-	-

Usage

Minimal example by using system/controlDict.functions:

interfaceHeight1
{
    // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
    type            interfaceHeight;
    libs            (fieldFunctionObjects);

    // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
    locations       ((0 0 0) (10 0 0) (20 0 0));

    // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
    alpha           alpha.water;
    liquid          true;
    direction       (1 0 0);
    interpolationScheme    cellPoint;

    // Optional (inherited) entries
    ...
}

where the entries mean:

Property	Description	Type	Req'd	Dflt
`type`	Type name: interfaceHeight	word	yes	-
`libs`	Library name: fieldFunctionObjects	word	yes	-
`locations`	Locations to report the height at	vectorList	yes	-
`alpha`	Name of alpha field	word	no	alpha
`liquid`	Flag if the alpha field that of the liquid	bool	no	true
`direction`	Direction of interface	vector	no	g
`interpolationScheme`	Interpolation scheme	word	no	cellPoint

The inherited entries are elaborated in:

Usage by the postProcess utility is not available.
