NAME
Grid_getBlkBC
SYNOPSIS
Grid_getBlkBC(integer(IN) :: blockId,
integer(OUT) :: faces(2,MDIM),
optional,integer(OUT) :: onBoundary(2,MDIM))
DESCRIPTION
Returns the boundary condition for each face of the block. This function finds out if a block face is on the physical boundary, and if so, returns the boundary condition. This function finds out if a block face is on the physical boundary. If the face is on the boundary and the boundary conditions is not periodic, it returns the boundary condition in array "faces". If the argument "onBoundary" is present then if all boundary conditions are not periodic, it returns all values identical to faces. If one or more boundary conditions are periodic, then the array "faces" returns NOT_BOUNDARY in corresponding elements, while the array "onBoundary" returns the value PERIODIC on corresponding faces. The boundary conditions are defined in the header file constants.h, ie. OUTFLOW, REFLECTING, PERIODIC. NOT_BOUNDARY, also defined in constants.h, is returned if a block face is not on a physical boundary.
ARGUMENTS
blockId - the local blockId
faces - array returned holding boundary conditions, except when periodic,
if any of the faces of the block are on a physical boundary.
The first index of the array can take on values LOW or
HIGH, and the second index can be IAXIS, JAXIS or KAXIS.
onBoundary - array returned with boundary conditions including periodic
NOTES
The #define constants LOW, HIGH, IAXIS, JAXIS and KAXIS are defined in constants.h and are meant to ease the readability of the code. instead of faces(2,3) = PERIODIC the code reads faces(HIGH, KAXIS) = PERIODIC.
