SET AXES-------------------------- Photon Help ---- SET CO[ntour] FI[ll]....determines which fill method is used to perform the contour fills. One of three methods can be selected from :- SIZE, NUMBER and DEPTH.
SIZE cells are filled with polygons of a specified size.
NUMBER cells are filled with a specified number of polygons.
(minimium 4)
DEPTH cells are filled using the Warnock method: each cell
is subdivided until :-
i) a subdivision can be filled with one colour
ii) the size of the subdivision is smaller than pixel
size.
iii) the cell has been subdivided a specified number
of times. This is the parameter DEPTH. Suggested
values of DEPTH range from 1 to 8.
1 fills each cell with one polygon.
8 fills each cell to pixel level.

SET CO[ntour] SC[ale] <FI[eld] or PL[ane]> ....determines whether the colour scale for shaded and filled contours is determined by the maximum and minimum values of the whole field (SCALE FIELD) or those of the plane on which the contour is being plotted (SCALE PLANE). Use of FIELD scaling will ensure that contours on different planes show consistent colours, while PLANE scaling may be used to plot contours on a single plane where the range of values is narrow compared to the overall field range.

SET CO[ntour] UN[its]....sets the units used for labelling the key on shaded and filled contour plots. The default is no contour key labelling. Any string of up to 20 characters may be entered to denote the units, and will appear when the colour key is plotted.

SET PO[rosity] <ON or OFF>....where the variable VPOR has been stored, PHOTON will automatically disable plotting vectors and contours within cells where VPOR=0.0. If it is required to plot within blocked cells, then SET POROSITY OFF will disable the porosity checking within PHOTON. The command SET POROSITY ON will restore checking.

SET RH[and]....changes to a right-handed coordinate system. As this is the default, SET RHAND should be needed only to reset the sense of the coordinate system when SET LHAND has been used.

SET VE[ctor] AV[erage] <OFF or ON>....sets the averaging method for vector calculation in BFC cases. When AVERAGE is set OFF, only the High, North and East values of the Cartesian components for each cell are used, whereas if it is set ON, all six Cartesian components are used. This may affect the resulting velocity vector in some cases.

SET VE[ctor] BO[undary] <OFF or ON> ....By default, PHOTON does not use velocity values at domain boundaries. Use of the SET VECTOR BOUNDARY OFF command will cause PHOTON not to ignore the boundary values, and to process the vector field exactly as it was read in.

SET V[ector] CE[ntre] <ON or OFF>.... is used to set the vector-plotting mode. Two modes are available, with vectors being plotted either radiating from cell centres (SET VECTOR CENTRE ON) or centred about the cell centre (SET VECTOR CENTRE OFF).

Although three variables must be specified, for 2D runs the third variable may be specified as a dash, e.g. VC - V1 W1 for a 2D Y-Z run. In this case, component 1 is taken as zero. The default setting is U1,V1,W1, and the PHASE command can be used to switch to second-phase velocity vectors.

SETBFC.... when set T, causes GREX3 to call GXBFGR, which computes the set of cell-corner coordinates defining a body- fitted-coordinate grid. Library case 966 illustrates the use of this feature.
Setting SETBFC = T causes GREX3 to call a new subroutine, GXBFGR, which exemplifies the use of GROUND coding to create a body-fitted-coordinate grid. Setting MOVBFC = T further causes GXBFGR to be called at each time step, in order that the grid can be changed; and, if storage is provided for CONI, CONJ and CONK, GREX3 will calculate the grid-movement contributions to the convection fluxes. Library case 966 illustrates the use of this feature.
---- Command; group 6 (Body-fitted co-ordinates)
SETLIN....is a command used to set the corner coordinates of cells on a line of constant I, J or K the location of which is set by the DOMAIN which precedes it.
For example, DOMAIN(1,1,5,5,3,NZ-2) preceding a SETLIN command signifies that SETLIN is to set the coordinates on the line I=1, J=5 from K=3 to K=NZ-2 inclusive. Thus, SETLIN incorporates a DO loop in which ( in this example ) the running index is K.
SETLIN can also be applied to areas and volumes, according to the setting of DOMAIN. For example, DOMAIN(1,NX+1,1,NY+1,1,NZ+1) results in a subsequent SETLIN command setting the coordinates on all lines of constant J and K one line after another with the J index running faster than the K index.
In terms of FORTRAN, the order of visitation of SETLIN for the commands:
DOMAIN(1,I1,I2,J1,J2,K1,K2)
SETLIN(XC,...)
is equivalent to:
DO 1 K=K1,K2
DO 1 J=J1,J2
DO 1 I=I1,I2
1 XC(I,J,K)=....
SETLIN has 2 arguments the first of which is set to XC or YC or ZC to indicate which cartesian coordinate is to be set. The second argument of SETLIN is used to specify the variation of XC, YC or ZC as a function of:
In addition to the above parameters, the following key words are recognized in argument 2:
LNI...which equals (I-IF)/(IL-IF)
LNJ...which equals (J-JF)/(JL-JF)
LNK...which equals (K-KF)/(KL-KF)
SNI...which equals SIN(2*3.14159*LNI)
SNJ...which equals SIN(2*3.14159*LNJ)
SNK...which equals SIN(2*3.14159*LNK)
CSI...which equals COS(2*3.14159*LNI)
CSJ...which equals COS(2*3.14159*LNJ)
CSK...which equals COS(2*3.14159*LNK)
XC... the current setting of XC(I,J,K)
YC... the current setting of YC(I,J,K)
ZC... the current setting of ZC(I,J,K)
SIN(expression).... where "expression" may include other key words
but not SIN(...), or COS(...).
COS(expression).... where "expression" may include other key words
but not SIN(...), or COS(...).
Any PIL variable may be used as a parameter in the formula.
The following command would set a cylindrical-polar grid of unit radius in the Y-Z plane:
NX=1;NY=10;NZ=10;BFC=T
SETLIN(YC,LNJ*CSK)
SETLIN(ZC,LNJ*SNK)
The DOMAIN command has not been inserted because, when the instruction BFC=T is encountered, the SATELLITE automatically sets DOMAIN(1,1,NX+1,1,NY+1,NZ+1). It is however crucial that the BFC=T instruction comes after the setting of NX, NY and NZ. (It is not necessary that the BFC option should be used for the cylindrical-polar coordinate system, for this system is provided for by CARTES=F ).
Many more examples of the use of SETLIN are provided in the BFC section of the PHOENICS Input Library.
See also BODY-F for related information.
Note that the FORTRAN subroutine equivalent to the PIL command SETLIN is called SETTLN; thus to set BFC corner coordinates via the subroutine SATLIT, the following call should be used: CALL SETTLN(...
and not: CALL SETLIN(...

SETPOR....must be set .TRUE. if the user wishes to reset the porosity stores in the course of the calculation.
The command has two arguments,
Thus, the presence in the Q1 file of:
SETPRPS(1,67)
selects properties,
It is important to understand that, contrary to what its name might suggest. SETPRPS does not set values of the variable PRPS.
Instead, it sets values of the PIL variables for those six properties with which the PROPS file is concerned, namely;
Is in unable to set values af those variables which do not appear in the PROPS file, namely:
If a field of PRPS values has been provided, the properties set by SETPRPS will be used only for those cells for which the PRPS value equals -1.0.
Thus SETPRPS(1,0) assigns the value 1.189 to rho1. If however the line RHO1=1.2 appears lower in the Q1 file, it is 1.2 which will be placed in the Q1EAR, EARDAT and finally RESULT files.

----- Command; group 6 ---------------
SETPT(I,J,K,XC,YC,ZC) ....is a command for SETting the corner coordinates of any control cell for a body-fitted grid. It has six arguments: the first 3 specify the corner indices I, J, K, and the last three the cartesian coordinates of the corner (XC, YC, ZC).
For example, SETPT(2,2,2,2.,3.,4.)SETs the East-North-High corner of the cell at IX=IY=IZ=1 to the cartesian locations XC=2.0, YC=3.0 and ZC=4.0 .
