import tableFile to OF

kpax · October 4, 2012, 10:48

hello fellow FOAMers,

i have a simple question: when using the uniformFixedValue BC with a tableFile, the data in that file is (obviously) read to give the BC values. How does OF do this exactly? I can't figure it out.

My goal is to import a tableFile in the main-function of a new solver.

any help is appreciated.

Greetings kpax,

I don't have time to try and create an example myself, but I can point you in the right directions!

The table data loading is handled by the classes that are present here: "src/OpenFOAM/primitives/functions/DataEntry"
For using "DataEntry" stuff, see "applications/test/dataEntry/Test-DataEntry.C"

Best regards,
Bruno
