flux source at particular location(boundary)
 

Hi.
I need to find the derivative of a variale (reactant.molconc) at particular location(x=0.002) which i m able to do it and then specify two sources, NEGATIVE SOURCE at left of the location and POSITIVE SOURCE at the right of the location, where source is some simple function of the gradient of the reactant.molconc .
The geometry is simple reactangle with a boundary at x=0.002
I thougt of a way but don't know(90% sure that it won't work) if it will work
the part of the code i written is :
DO ILOC = 1, NLOC
IF (X(ILOC).GE.0.002 .AND. X(ILOC).LE.0.002 .AND.
& Y(ILOC).GE.0.00 .AND. Y(ILOC).LE.0.001) THEN
SOURCE(ILOC-1) = -(1e-9)*GRAD_PHI(1,ILOC)
SOURCE(ILOC+1) = (1e-9)*GRAD_PHI(1,ILOC)
END IF
END DO
but i m not sure if ILOC-1 will be just left of the location and ILOC+1 at the right of the boundary. The problem is how the vertices are assigned to NLOC..
Plz help on this...Suggest some other and better ways to do the same.

No, it's not going to work. ILOC has nothing to do with the physical location of a vertex. More importantly, you cannot define a point or line source in the finite volume method. You should add your source like the "User Defined Momentum Source" example in the documentation.

Why can't you use the built in CEL gradient functions?

@ Baserinia

Yes, I have read the "momentum source" from the documentation. But the unit of momentum source is kg m^-2 s^-2 and the unit i need is kg m^-2 s^-1. So, it is giving some error.

Also there is only option of momentum source, no option of mass flux source which i need.

Use a mass source then. And your comment about the momentum source shows your momentum source units are wrong.

.... And why not use the built in CEL gradient functions?

But even the mass source unit is kg m^3 s^-1, i need mass flux source kg m^2 s^-1

We are also trying other things and going through the built in CEL function too. Thanks
