massed_pressure#
- ptrace.massed_pressure(p0: str) int #
Specify whether the pressure force term is used in the massed-particle calculation.
The default setting is OFF. The “ptrace: massed_particles” command does not have to be ON in order to specify this command. If this command is ON, then the pressure force term in the massed-particle momentum balance equation is computed according to the “ptrace: massed_pressure_gradient” setting.- Args:
- p0:
‘toggle’
ON
OFF
- 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) # # Toggle on massed-particle pressure force term # Specify pressure gradient variable # ensight.part.modify_begin() ensight.ptrace.massed_pressure("ON") ensight.ptrace.massed_pressure_gradient("grad_pressure") 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
