Provides an abstract data type to model entrainment into a vertically integrated plume.
Type | Intent | Optional | Attributes | Name | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
class(abstract_entrainment), | intent(in) | :: | this | |||
class(vector_field), | intent(in) | :: | velocity | The velocity field of the plume into which fluid is being entrained. |
||
class(scalar_field), | intent(in) | :: | thickness | The thickness of the plume into which fluid is being entrained |

real(kind=r8), | intent(in), | optional | :: | time | The time at which the entrainment is being calculated. If not present then assumed to be same as previous value passed. |
The value of the entrainment
An abstract data type for calculating entrainment of ambient ocean water into a vertically integrated plume.
procedure(get_entrainment), public :: entrainment_rate | Returns the entrainment rate for ambient water into the plume. |
