DPM: using UDF for creating and deleting Particles

Hello,
I'd like to write an UDF for a DPM simulation, with which I can create new Droplets, and also delete old ones. In the src-folder of Fluent, I found the header with all the structs and functions for DPM. As far as I understand, a new particle can be created with "new_particle(void)", or also appended to an existing particles-list ("append_particle_to_list(Particle *p, Particle **pl, Injection *I)"). I guess that the double pointer "**pl" is pointing to the last particle in the thread? Instead of creating a completely new particle, copying one might be more convenient. So, I also tried the functions "copy_particle_pvars" and "deep_cop_particle". So, far I was not really successful, and the newly created particles were not tracked. I would be glad, if anyone could give me a hint. Thanks in advance, MA |
