Keywords:

setFormat

set output format, choice of

xmgr

jplot

gnuplot

raw

surfaceFormat

surface output format, choice of

null : suppress output

foamFile : separate points, faces and values file

dx : DX scalar or vector format

vtk : VTK ascii format

raw : x y z value format for use with e.g. gnuplot splot.

obj : Wavefron stl. Does not contain values!

stl : ascii stl. Does not contain values!

interpolationScheme

interpolation scheme, choice of

cell : use cell-centre value; constant over cells (default)

cellPoint : use cell-centre and vertex values

cellPointFace : use cell-centre, vertex and face values. \n

vertex values determined from neighbouring cell-centre values

face values determined using the current face interpolation scheme for the field (linear, limitedLinear, etc.)

fields

list of fields to sample

sets

list of sets to sample, choice of

uniform : evenly distributed points on line

face : one point per face intersection

midPoint : one point per cell, inbetween two face intersections

midPointAndFace : combination of face and midPoint

curve : specified points, not nessecary on line, uses tracking

cloud : specified points, uses findCell

Option axis: how to write point coordinate. Choice of

x/y/z: x/y/z coordinate only

xyz: three columns (probably does not make sense for anything but raw)

distance: distance from start of sampling line (if uses line) or distance from first specified sampling point

Type specific options:

uniform, face, midPoint, midPointAndFace : start and end coordinate

uniform: extra number of sampling points

curve, cloud: list of coordinates

surfaces

list of surfaces to sample, choice of

plane : values on plane defined by point, normal.

patch : values on patch.

-latestTime

Only sample the latest time directory.

-time <time>

Only sample the time directory.

-constant

Include the constant directory.

-help

Display help message.
