"Case": {
    "m": 1.0
}

This parameter is relevant for 2D base flows (nDim: 2) with one homogeneous direction represented spectrally in FELiCS.

Its interpretation depends on the selected CoordinateSystem:

  • "Cartesian":

    m represents the spanwise wavenumber associated with the homogeneous direction.

  • "Cylindrical":

    m represents the azimuthal mode number and should therefore take integer values.

This parameter is ignored for 3D base flows (nDim: 3).
