Detailed Description

Constraint on velocity field to dampen velocity fluctuations.

This constraint is primarily used to dampen velocity fluctuations in the start-up phase of simulations. When the local velocity magnitude exceeds the user-supplied maximum value a sink term is activated in the affected region to lower the velocity to the limiting value.

Usage
Example of functionality specification in fvOptions:
velocityDamper
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type            velocityDampingConstraint;
    UMax            200;

    // Optional entries
    selectionMode   all;
    UNames          (U);    // names of given velocity fields
    U               U;      // name of given velocity field if
                            //`UNames` is not present (default: U)

    // Optional fvOptions entries
    active          true;
}
Note
When active, this constraint manipulates the system of equations. Users should ensure that it is not active when the case is converged (steady-state) or during the period of interest (transient) to ensure that its presence does not pollute the results.
