hey! foamers
I need to use the strain rate in my custom solver so I calculated it by writing the following line in the code

const volScalarField strainrate = sqrt(2.0)*mag(symm(fvc::grad(U)));

and my solver compile it successfully

but when I run my simulation I got the following error

FOAM FATAL ERROR:
cannot be called for a calculatedFvPatchField
on patch inlet of field (1.41421*mag(symm(grad(U)))) in file "/home/rishk686/OpenFOAM/rishk686-10/run/pipeflow_2/berris_mypimple/0.005/(1.41421*mag(symm(grad(U))))"
You are probably trying to solve for a field with a default boundary condition.

From function Foam::tmp<Foam::Field<Type> > Foam::calculatedFvPatchField<Type>::gradientIntern alCoeffs() const [with Type = double]
in file fields/fvPatchFields/basic/calculated/calculatedFvPatchField.C at line 178.

FOAM aborting

I am unable to tackle this error.
I will be very thankful if someone helps me.

Thank you
