cs_user_initialization.f90

Introduction

This page provides several examples of code blocks that may be used to initialize variables in cs_user_initialization.

These subroutines are called at beginning of the computation (restart or not) before the loop time step.

These subroutines enable to initialize or modify (for restart) unkown variables and time step values.

rom and viscl values are equal to ro0 and viscl0 or initialize by reading the restart file:

• viscls and cp variables (when there are defined) have no value
• excepted if they are read from a restart file.

Modification of the behaviour law of physical quantities (rom, viscl, viscls, cp) is not done here. It is the purpose of the user subroutine usphyv.

Cells identification

Cells may be identified using the 'getcel' subroutine. The syntax of this subroutine is described in the cs_user_boundary_conditions subroutine, but a more thorough description can be found in the user guide.
