Is it possible to create a topic branch about the sprays simulation for VTK::FiltersFlowPaths.
The vtkLagrangianParticleTracker helped me for the inject and track particles in a flow (simulation), thanks VTK. I was guessing VTK can also help me for the sprays simulation which describing primary breakup phenomena (please see the details with the references below), but I can’t find the API in VTK. I later found out that this is part of the simulation software ([LISAAtomisation.h of OpenFOAM](https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-dev/blob/master/src/lagrangian/parcel/submodels/Spray/AtomisationModel/LISAAtomisation/LISAAtomisation.H)) and not the visualization software (VTK), so please indicate me if the sprays simulation can/will be part of VTK?

VTK is not a simulation software but the lagrangian particle tracker can indeed let you implement any kind of breakup phenomena using the split particle API.

It’s amazing.
