Hi,I am using dsmcFoam to simulate vacuum plume，I have some problems
1. what is difference between Number of dsmc particles and Number of molecules,and what is the relationship between them

2. Are all molecules come out continuously from inlet

.No of molecules (no of real molecules) and the no of dsmc particles (no of simulated molecules ) . I think it is that way . Not sure .
