Dear Foamer,

I'm developing a required boundary condition for my work. and already have compiled it but the problem here is that when I developed it I was using old version and now I'm using OF-v1612+ so when I tried to use it with single processor it works and no problem but when I tried to decompse it to run my case in parallel I got the following error :

keyword wallDist is undefined in dictionary "/home/openFoam/1stTrials/multi-processor/system/fvSchemes"

Although it's defined in the fvscheme as :

wallDist
{
method meshWave;
}

Could you please help me in this problem?

Thanks in advance

Dear Anders,

I managed it by bypass way I don't know if it is right or not just the problem was in the decomposition and in reconstract again so you can decompose your case without the file which has the new boundary condithon and after that put this file manually ( there are many commands in bash to put it directly in the processors ) in each processor and add to this file :

boundaryField
{
/* ... */


processor
{
type processor;
value $internalField;
}

}



then run your case

then before reconstruct remove the name of the new boundary condition by any linux command
