- cycle_frequencyThe frequency of the process. Used to calculate the period over which you are integrating.
C++ Type:double
Unit:(no unit assumed)
Controllable:No
Description:The frequency of the process. Used to calculate the period over which you are integrating.
MultiPeriodAverager
MultiPeriodAverager
calculates the the period average of values of periodic fuctions at the end of each period, such that: Where is the value of MultiPeriodAverager
, is the number of periods to average over, and is the value of the periodic value at the end of a period. Until the number of periods over which you are averaging has passed the value of the Postprocessor will reflect the previously calculated average.
Before the first average is calculated the value of this post processor will be 0.
MultiPeriodAverager
is intended to be used with the PeriodicTimeIntegratedPostprocessor.

Optional Parameters
- allow_duplicate_execution_on_initialFalseIn the case where this UserObject is depended upon by an initial condition, allow it to be executed twice during the initial setup (once before the IC and again after mesh adaptivity (if applicable).
Default:False
C++ Type:bool
Controllable:No
Description:In the case where this UserObject is depended upon by an initial condition, allow it to be executed twice during the initial setup (once before the IC and again after mesh adaptivity (if applicable).
- execute_onTIMESTEP_ENDThe list of flag(s) indicating when this object should be executed. For a description of each flag, see https://mooseframework.inl.gov/source/interfaces/SetupInterface.html.
Default:TIMESTEP_END
C++ Type:ExecFlagEnum
Controllable:No
Description:The list of flag(s) indicating when this object should be executed. For a description of each flag, see https://mooseframework.inl.gov/source/interfaces/SetupInterface.html.
- execution_order_group0Execution order groups are executed in increasing order (e.g., the lowest number is executed first). Note that negative group numbers may be used to execute groups before the default (0) group. Please refer to the user object documentation for ordering of user object execution within a group.
Default:0
C++ Type:int
Controllable:No
Description:Execution order groups are executed in increasing order (e.g., the lowest number is executed first). Note that negative group numbers may be used to execute groups before the default (0) group. Please refer to the user object documentation for ordering of user object execution within a group.
