Hi openfoamers, I hope you are fine
this is my first question in the forum,
I want to use VolPointInterpolation but I feel a bit blocked , I can apply it only on the boundary field? I need to interpolte a source term, Is there someone who has worked on this previously can explain to me how to use it please?

thank you in advance

I have added a variable force as a source term to the momentum equation, this force is calculated on each mesh point using matlab code, I have a file which contains each value corresponds to each mesh point, what I wanted to do is apply each force to its point in openFoam, can I do that with VolPointInterpolation? if so how can I use it?
