Detailed Description

template<int dim>
class FuelCellShop::Layer::GasDiffusionLayer< dim >

Virtual class used to provide the interface for all GasDiffusionLayer children.

No object of type GasDiffusionLayer should ever be created, instead this layer is used to initialize pointers of type GasDiffusionLayer. The class has a database of children such that it will declare all necessary parameters for all children in the input file, read the input file, create the appripriate children and return a pointer to GasDiffusionLayer with the children selected.

All public functions are virtual but the static functions used to declare parameters and to initialize a pointer of GasDiffusionLayer, i.e. declare_all_GasDiffusionLayer_parameters, set_all_GasDiffusionLayer_parameters and create_GasDiffusionLayer.

Usage Details:

In order to create a gas diffusion layer within an application, the following steps need to be taken.

First, in the application .h file, create a pointer to a GasDiffusionLayer object, i.e.

boost::shared_ptr<FuelCellShop::Layer::GasDiffusionLayer<dim> > CGDL;

This pointer object will be available anywhere inside the application. Because we do not want to worry about deleting the pointer afterwards, we use a Boost pointer which has its own memory management algorithms. See the Boost website for more information

Once the pointer is available, we need to do three things in the application

Call declare_all_GasDiffusionLayer_parameters in the application declare_parameters() member function. This member function is used to define all parameters that can be read from the input file

Call set_all_GasDiffusionLayer_parameters in the application set_parameters() member function. This member function is used only if either a parameteric or an optimization study is used. set_***_parameter member functions are used to link a parameter in the input file to a design variable name used by Dakota. If you are only implementing an analysis program this is not necessary.

Call create_GasDiffusionLayer and initialize. The former member function will fill the pointer created above with the appropriate gas diffusion layer you have selected in the input file. Then, initialize reads from the input file all the data from the file in order to setup the object.

The object is ready for use now.

Here is a code example from app_cathode.cc:

//--------- IN DECLARE_PARAMETERS ------------------------------------------------------
template <int dim>
void 
NAME::AppCathode<dim>::declare_parameters(ParameterHandler& param)
{
  (...)
  // Declare section on the input file where all info will be stored. In this case Fuel Cell Data > Cathode gas diffusion layer
  FuelCellShop::Layer::GasDiffusionLayer<dim>::declare_GasDiffusionLayer_parameters("Cathode gas diffusion layer", param);
  (...)
}
         
//--------- IN SET_PARAMETERS ------------------------------------------------------
template <int dim>
void 
NAME::AppCathode<dim>::set_parameters(const std::vector<std::string>& name_dvar,
                                     const std::vector<double>& value_dvar,
                                     ParameterHandler& param)
{
  (...)
  // Set any parameters in the parameter file related to the layers.
  FuelCellShop::Layer::GasDiffusionLayer<dim>::set_GasDiffusionLayer_parameters(name_dvar, value_dvar, "Cathode gas diffusion layer", param);
  (...)
}
//--------- IN INITIALIZE ------------------------------------------------------
template <int dim>
void
NAME::AppCathode<dim>::_initialize(ParameterHandler& param)
{   
 (...) 
  // Initialize layer classes:
  std::vector< FuelCellShop::Material::PureGas * > gases;
  gases.push_back(&oxygen);
  gases.push_back(&nitrogen);
   
  CGDL = FuelCellShop::Layer::GasDiffusionLayer<dim>::create_GasDiffusionLayer("Cathode gas diffusion layer",param);
  // Here, I specify the gases that exist in the GDL and their temperature and pressure (based on operating conditions):
  CGDL->set_gases_and_compute(gases, OC.get_pc_atm (), OC.get_T());
  (...)
}
