Detailed Description

Encompasses data and functions required to output plot data and the convergence history. The plot data itself is provided by the class Solver.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Output::Output

(

)

Initializes data related to plot output.

Member Function Documentation

void Output::CloseConvergence

(

)

Closes file with the convergence history.

void Output::Flowfield	(	const Geometry &	geometry,
		const FluidProps &	fluidProps,
		const BndConds &	bndConds,
