Hello all!

I have a pre-computed field and I run unsteady particleFoam on it. By default a few properties of the particles are printed into /lagrangian (notably location and velocity) but I would need to extract more properties, such as the static pressure felt by the particles.

I tried to figure out a way of doing this through the particleTracks object function in kinematicCloudProperties:

cloudFunctions
{
particleTracks1
{
type particleTracks;
trackInterval 1;
maxSamples 1000000;
resetOnWrite yes;
}
}

but I could not find a way of specifying a property to track.

My next attempt will be to directly modify KinematicParcelTrackingDataI.H, KinematicParcel.H and KinematicParcel.C and recompile the /lagrangian/intermediate library, but I am not sure that this is the best way forward.

I would be grateful if someone could suggest an easier solution!

Thanks in advance,
Riccardo
