Interpolation from particles (points) to vol

Dear Foamers,
I am looking for a possibility to interpolate values from lagrangian particles to the mesh volumes. Each parctile holds a separate value, such as a weight or whatever. What I need is an area-weighted field of all particles (many of them!). One possibilty would be to loop over all cells (or particles) and just average the values of all particles within one cell. However, the area-weighting is lost by doing this. As far as I see it, the class pointVolInterpolation "only" interpolates from a full pointMesh to a volMesh and cannot be used for my problem. Am I right? Any ideas? Thanks in advance! |
