Hello foamers! I have a question.
I am trying to create a compartment geometry inside a fluid domain openfoam. I have created the compartment wall and burner using topoSet and extrudeRegionToMesh.
Now I have to patch the burner's upper surface as an inlet.
When I tried createPatch command I got the following error.
"-> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
cannot find file "/mnt/e/OpenFOAM/Tutorialsv1812/comp_Fire_Trial1-Success/constant/polyMesh/sets/fBurner"

From function virtual Foam::autoPtr<Foam::ISstream> Foam::fileOperations::uncollatedFileOperation::rea dStream(Foam::regIOobject&, const Foam::fileName&, const Foam::word&, bool) const
in file global/fileOperations/uncollatedFileOperation/uncollatedFileOperation.C at line 532.

FOAM exiting"

If you know what is this problem please let me know

Hi Dinesh,

Do you maybe have a typo somewhere in your setup. See the red:

Maybe you've named the set burner in toposet, but calling it fBurner somewhere else?

Other than that, you would need to post your createPatchDict, topoSetDict etc. so that someone can help you. The more information you provide, the better the chances of a helpful response.

Good luck,
Thomas
