Detailed Description

The derived class from boundary to apply periodic boundary condition for a cell-centered variable.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ periodicCC()

periodicCC::periodicCC ( const grid mesh,
field inField,
const int  bcWall 
)

Constructor of the periodicCC class.

     The constructor simply initializes the base boundary class using all the arguments supplied to it.
     Since periodic BC is being implemented, no additional values are necessary for the object.
Parameters
meshis a const reference to the global data contained in the grid class
inFieldis a reference to the field to which the boundary conditions must be applied.
bcWallis a const integer which specifies the wall to which the BC must be applied.

Member Function Documentation

◆ imposeBC()

void periodicCC::imposeBC ( )
inlinevirtual

Function to impose periodic BC on a cell centered variable.

     For Saras solver, the wall passes through the cell centers of the variables.
     Hence the variable is lying on the wall for this case.
     This BC is used mainly in the Z-direction, because Saras supports pencil/slab decomposition only.
     Along Z, no MPI structures exist at all.
     Hence no MPI data transfer takes place, and this BC imposes periodic BC along Z.

Reimplemented from boundary.
