Hi all


I was exporting some Lagrangian data in OpenFOAM v8 and I wanted to use the position of a particle to initialize another simulation. However, I can't understand the format. The "positions" file shows something like this:

/*--------------------------------*- C++ -*----------------------------------*\
  =========                 |
  \\      /  F ield         | OpenFOAM: The Open Source CFD Toolbox
   \\    /   O peration     | Website:  https://openfoam.org
    \\  /    A nd           | Version:  8
     \\/     M anipulation  |
\*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
FoamFile
{
    version     2.0;
    format      ascii;
    class       Cloud<passiveParticle>;
    location    "0.056/lagrangian/kinematicCloud";
    object      positions;
}
// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //

(0.214858 0.231858 0.160714 0.392571) 3838 7620 1
)

Could someone please explain me what does every number represents? And if you know, which source file reads or writes the "positions" file?.


Best regards,
Felipe.
