nParcels

The number of parcels is only used to calculate an average parcel mass. At the end of the calculation the total number of injected parcels will not be less than this number, but it can be higher.

The reason for this can be that the injected mass during one time step is less than the average parcel mass. In that case 1 parcel will still be injected to obey the massFlowRateProfile. Obeying the massFlowRate has higher priority than obeying the number of injected parcels.
