velocity

varextcfd.velocity(p0: str) → int

Set the velocity basis variable.

For extended CFD variables to be computed, the basis variables must be identified and the basis constants defined. You must define either momentum or velocity for a basis, but not both.

Args:

p0:

‘var’ name of the velocity variable

Examples:

#
# Activating all variables in this case
#
ensight.variables.activate_all()
#
# Making extended variables available
#
ensight.varextcfd.show_extended("ON")
#
# Setting the basis variables and constants
#
ensight.varextcfd.modify_begin()
ensight.varextcfd.density("Density")
ensight.varextcfd.velocity("Velocity")
ensight.varextcfd.total_energy("Energy")
ensight.varextcfd.ratio_of_spec_heat("1.4000e+00")
ensight.varextcfd.freestream_mach(1.0000e+00)
ensight.varextcfd.gas_constant(1.0000e+00)
ensight.varextcfd.freestream_density(1.0000e+00)
ensight.varextcfd.freestream_speed_sound(1.0000e+00)
ensight.varextcfd.modify_end()

Returns:

zero on success, non-zero on error
