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.

zeroWgtAbsorber Example Block¶

<ParticleSink myZeroWgtAbsorber>
  kind = zeroWgtAbsorber
  minDim = 1
  lowerBounds = [0 0 0]
  upperBounds = [NX NY NZ]
