Summary

Thermal latent heat energy flux

Description

Flux is given by:

H_v v_e

H_v is the expression for latent heat of vaporization and v_e is the local interface speed

The following options are present in most boundary conditions/sources. The meaning of each option is as follows:

Power_Output

If specified, the total (integrated) power of the given BC/Src is calculated and stored into the global variable name specified as the power_output argument.

Flux_Output

If specified, the average flux of the given BC/Src is calculated and stored into the global variable name specified as the flux_output argument.

Toggle

If given, specifies which toggle block controls whether this BC is active or not.
