…ointGenerator and PKAGun as references. Need to create methods for randomly sampling using Magpie methods to sample within an element. First need to sample a random element on the boundary.
…ermining boundary surface area for num_pka calculations. Known issue: getMesh() not defined in inheritance and not yet clear how to access these methods effectively.
builds without error
…x, add option to specify or autocalculate surface area
- 2D heat deposition and conduction - 3D heat deposition and conduction - vacancies closes idaholab#509

I'm not terribly convinced by the distribution of the deposited heat... Can someone take a look at this? |

Hm, you determine the probability to launch a pka in a element by its surface area on a given boundary. Then you start the pka in the volume of that element. Two comments, you should probably use a projection of the surface onto the plane defined by the pka direction vector, and you should start the pkas at the surface, meaning to select a random position in the side element, not the volume element. We can chat next week if you want. |
