Summary0002613: swirlFlowRateInletVelocity does not give expected result for axi-symmetric case
DescriptionFor an axisymmetric case the swirlinletvelocity gives the swirl at the center of the inlet patch instead of on the axis. This contribution allows the use to select the axis and origin. Also attached is a small demo case
Steps To Reproduce1. Run demo case with swirlInletFlowRateVelocity

2. compile axisSwirlInletFlowRateVelocity

3. Run demo case with axisSwirlInletFlowRateVelocity on the inlet patch

Coincidentally I have been working on this generalization today and on additional functionality to specify the radial velocity distribution. I will check your version against mine and merge functionality.

Your version replaces the current functionality but it would be easy to support both in the same class. I will push my version later today.

I suppose having it in the same class would indeed be the preferred option.

Please re-open if there is an issue with this generalized implementation.

No issue with the functionality, just the suggestion to add the default origin and axis in the description section. i.e.

Property | Description | Required | Default value
phi | flux field name | no | phi
rho | density field name | no | rho
origin | origin of rotation in Cartesian co-ordinates | no | centerpoint of patch
axis | axis of rotation | no | normal of patch
flowRate | flow rate profile | yes |
rpm | rotational speed profile | yes |

I will add documentation. Note the default axis is actually -patch normal.
