Build a CO2 species case (OpenFOAM 12 multicomponentFluid) with a breathing manikin.

Input

Name Nickname Description Type
Case Name Name Case name (no spaces). Text
Working Directory Dir Working directory (default ~/Eddy3D/Cases). Text
Room R Room interior as an axis-aligned box. Box
Cell Size C Background cell size (m). Number
Manikin M Manikin from the Manikin component. Generic Data
Vent V Vent (pressure outlet) centre, on a room wall. Point
Breaths B Breathing rate (breaths per minute). Number
Exhaled CO2 E Exhaled-breath CO2 (ppm). Ignored when Occupant is connected, which derives it. Number
Occupant O Optional occupant (Occupant CO2 component). When given, the mouth's exhaled CO2 and peak velocity are derived from age, activity and minute volume instead of from the Exhaled CO2 and Breaths inputs. Generic Data
Ambient CO2 A Initial/background CO2 (ppm). Number
Duration T Simulated seconds. Number
Probes P Probe points sampled for CO2 and temperature. Point
Write W Click to write the case to disk. Resets automatically so it never re-writes on recompute. Boolean

Output
