Declaration

 addParticles(name,fluxOp,x,y,z,trackedFieldNames,options)

Parameters

• name a unique name to call the particles
• fluxOp a WVParticleFluxOperation, used to determine how the flow advects the particles
• x x-coordinate location of the particles
• y y-coordinate location of the particles
• z z-coordinate location of the particles
• trackedFields strings of variable names
• advectionInterpolation (optional) interpolation method used for particle advection. “linear” (default), “spline”, “exact”
• trackedVarInterpolation (optional) interpolation method used for tracked field. “linear” (default), “spline”, “exact”
• absToleranceXY (adapative) absolute tolerance in meters for particle advection in (x,y). 1e-1 (default)
• absToleranceZ (adapative) absolute tolerance in meters for particle advection in (z). 1e-2 (default)
