massed_particle_diameter#
- ptrace.massed_particle_diameter(p0: float) int #
Specify the diameter of all the massed-particles.
The default value is 1.0e-03. The “ptrace: massed_particles” command does not have to be ON in order to specify this command. This parameter is figured in all terms of the massed-particle momentum balance equation. Water particle diameters are on the order of 1.0e-3, and air partilce diameters are on the order of 1.0e-6.- Args:
- p0:
‘diameter’ the diameter value of all the particles
- Examples:
# # Create a massless point trace # ensight.part.select_all() ensight.ptrace.select_default() ensight.part.modify_begin() ensight.ptrace.variable("velocity") ensight.part.modify_end() ensight.part.select_all() ensight.ptrace.create_pt() ensight.part.select_begin(2) # # Specify diameter of the massed particle # ensight.part.modify_begin() ensight.ptrace.massed_particle_diameter(1.0000e-03) ensight.part.modify_end() # # Change part to massed trace using current settings # ensight.part.modify_begin() ensight.ptrace.massed_particles("ON") ensight.part.modify_end()
- Returns:
zero on success, non-zero on error
