zeroWgtAbsorber

zeroWgtAbsorber

Works with VSimBase, VSimEM, VSimPD, VSimPA, and VSimVE licenses.

This particle sink is designed to be used in combination with Collision blocks. When variable weight particles combine during a collision, some particles in the simulation have zero weight. The zeroWgtAbsorber is used to remove these (non-physical) particles from the simulation.

zeroWgtAbsorber Parameters

minDim (integer)

Minimum dimensionality for which this sink is applicable (1, 2, or 3).

lowerBounds (integer vector)

Gives lower bounds of the particle sink in cell indices.

upperBounds (integer vector)

Gives upper bounds of the particle sink in cell indices.
