Hi,

I'm using in openFOAM-2.0 on a 3D case groovyBC to perform this parabolic inlet velocity profile:

U(0,y,z)=Um*y*z*(H-y)*(H-z)/h^4
V=0
W=0

where Um=4*U(0,H/2,H/2,t)

What I've implemented is:

in
{
type groovyBC;
variables "yp=pts().y;zp=pts().z;minZ=min(zp);maxZ=max(zp);H =(maxZ-minZ)/2;U@in=4*U(0,H,H)*normal();";
valueExpression "U*yp*zp*(H-yp)*(H-zp)/pow(H,4)";
}


and I got the following error message:

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
cannot find file

file: /Users/soledad/OpenFoam/soledad-2.0.0/run/Cylinder/incompressible/icoFoam/system/controlDict at line 0.

From function regIOobject::readStream()
in file db/regIOobject/regIOobjectRead.C at line 73.

FOAM exiting

As in the wiki says, I've added in the contolDict: libs ( "libgroovyBC.so" ) ;
Could you help me please?

Thank you

The problem is that there is no controlDict there (you're trying to run the solver in the directory of the sources not in a case-directory). It's got nothing to do with groovyBC

[ofslcm]

Hi,

thank you for your quick response. But I don't understand what should I do. I've copied the folder groovyBC on a case directory and I've try to run the case again, but I still get the same error. This is the path:

~/OpenFoam/cases-2.0.0/run/Cylinder/incompressible/icoFoam/cylinder_00/groovyBC

Please, would you mind to explain it to me again?

Thank you

The original error message said basically "there is no control dict here". That has nothing to do with groovyBC

You don't have to copy the folder with the groovyBC-sources to the case. groovyBC has to be compiled once (see the instructions on the Wiki-page - the swak-page if you're using the groovyBC from there)

Then you'll have to prepare the case as described (also there) and you should be in business

It seems not to find .H files. I'm working with Mac and with openFOAM-2.0. I have Bison 2.3.

At the beginning I compiled groovyBC and I got the following error:

then I remove the Foam:: in these two lines.

Could you help me please?

Thank you

It seems that you're using the "old-school" groovyBC from http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_groovyBC

Have a look at the top of the page. There it says that support for this is discontinued with 2.0

The utilities are the last part the compilation script compiles. What happens with the Libraries

The error messages you posted are not very helpful. What happens once g++ is called?

That is a general misconfiguration of the case. A symmetryPlan only allows symmetry-BC

thank you. I've already corrected the problem with the symmetryPlane BC.

Related to compilation: I have download swak4Foam and as it says in the wiki, I've compiled the files with wmake all, however I have many problems, since some files cannot be opened. Could you help me? This is the first part of the compilation error. It seems no to find the libraries:

a) what are the first errors of the "real" compilation (from g++)

b) what does
ls $FOAM_SRC/OpenFOAM/lnInclude/PrimitivePatchMeshData.C
say (is the file found)

c) what does
ulimit -a
say (because if the rest of the compilation works this might be an issue with the number of file-descriptors)

Thank you for the help.

The problem is solved. I need to change the extension ".so" by ".dylib" and openFoam is finding the library

Can you explain where you have changed the extension ".so" by ".dylib" ?
I have the same problem

[ofslcm]

In the controlDict, where you call to your function, change the extension .so by .dylib, for example: forces.dylib

Is that on a Mac? Which version of OF-patches for that do you use? The one I published replace ".so" with ".dylib" on the fly. So you can keep "libfoo.so" in the files and OF will look for "libfoo.dylib". That way the case works on Linux and MacOSX

inlet { type groovyBC; variables "yp=pts().y;minY=min(yp);maxY=max(yp);para=-(maxY-pos().y)*(pos().y-minY)/(0.25*pow(maxY-minY,2))*normal();"; valueExpression "10*(1+0.5*sin(500*time()))*para"; value uniform (10 0 0); }

The above is an example for groovxyBC in OFwiki. The valueExpression shows a time-dependent variable. I supposed it's for velocities. Why is a constant velocity vector specified at the end?

You mean "value uniform (10 0 0);"? That is there to keep Paraview and other tools that don't know groovyBC happy

Hm. That is a rather old version of swak you're using. Isn't it? According to the source repository I fixed this last december and since then there have been at least 3 releases.

Anyway. This is only because you have no mercurial installed and doesn't affect the rest of the compilation anyway (the script generates the header file with the version information and in the end it would have said "oh. that didn't change" and left the file alone).

But do yourself a favour: get the latest version
