Hi All

Trying to run a funkySetFields (FSF) on the epsilon variable on one of the tutorials. The FSF utility is not finding the turbulent wall bc (in this case for epsilon). Any thoughts. Below is the output.

That boundary condition is either located in libcompressibleRASModels.so or libincompressibleRASModels.so (depending on what kind of case this is) and FSF doesn't link these. The solution is to force the loading of that library. You do that by adding

libs ( "libcompressibleRASModels.so" );

to the system/controlDict (add an "in" in the right place if your case is incompressible).

If this works for you, then it would be nice if you added a remark to the regular FSF-Wiki-page so that future generations will profit from that knowledge

That worked ... thanks for your help.

I will post to the Wiki.
