Domain, Boundary, Pair, and Global Nodes for the Particle Tracing for Fluid Flow Interface
The Particle Tracing for Fluid Flow Interface has these domain, boundary, pair, and global nodes available from the Physics ribbon toolbar (Windows users), Physics context menu (Mac or Linux users), or right-click to access the context menu (all users). The context menu includes dedicated menus for Forces and Thermal features.
In general, to add a node, go to the Physics toolbar, no matter what operating system you are using. Subnodes are available by clicking the parent node and selecting it from the Attributes menu.
In the COMSOL Multiphysics Reference Manual see Table 2-4 for links to common sections and Table 2-5 to common feature nodes. You can also search for information: press F1 to open the Help window or Ctrl+F1 to open the Documentation window.
For a theoretical background to the forces, see Theory for the Particle Tracing for Fluid Flow Interface.
