NAME

freefoam-flowType - Calculates and writes the flowType of velocity field U.

SYNOPSIS

freefoam flowType [-help] [-latestTime] [-noZero] [-constant] [-srcDoc] [-doc] [-time <time>] [-dict <dictionary name>] [-parallel] [-case <dir>]

DESCRIPTION

The -noWrite option has no meaning.
The flow type parameter is obtained according to the following equation: 
             |D| - |Omega|
    lambda = -------------
             |D| + |Omega|


    -1 = rotational flow
     0 = simple shear flow
     1 = planar extensional flow

OPTIONS

-dict <dictionary name>

-noZero

-constant
Include the constant directory.
-time <time>
Apply only to specific time.
-latestTime
