Static settings for one flow problem.

Attributes

Name	Type	Description
shape	tuple[int, int, int]	`(NX, NY, NZ)` grid, with the duct axis along `+Y`.
inlet_speed	float	Inlet velocity in cells per step (lattice units).
reynolds	float	Reynolds number, which together with `inlet_speed` and `characteristic_cells` fixes the viscosity.
characteristic_cells	int \| None	The length scale of the Reynolds number, in cells. `None` uses the duct’s `NZ`.
alpha_max	float	Brinkman drag at `chi = 1`. Large enough that the solid is effectively impermeable, small enough that the linearised operator stays well conditioned; see :func:`recommended_alpha_max` for the sweep that picks it. Note that it multiplies `chi` everywhere, so it is only safe with a compactly supported profile – see :mod:`cadjoint.flow.domain`.
steady	SteadyOptions	Convergence settings for the forward and adjoint solves.

Raises

Name	Type	Description
	ValueError	If the implied `omega` exceeds :data:`OMEGA_CEILING`.
