Hi Niels,

Thanks for the information. I will try that.. I heard that even oscillatingfixedvalue would also work in this case... Any idea how to incorporate them..

Thanks

Regards

As I have not tried it, my only suggestion is for you to look at the wiki, which seems to give quite a few examples.

Good luck,

Niels

Hello

I have downloaded the groovy wave Tank case from the following link.
http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_groovyBC

I was not able to run the case successfully.(on OpenFoam-1.5)

Any suggestions will be really helpful.

Regards,
Gautami.

Further details will be really helpful.

You touched the first two bullet-points in number 3 at http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Ho..._Message_Board

Hello,

I am sorry for being so vague.

I am using OpenFoam-1.5 on Suse linux 10.3.

The main reason why my groovy wave tank case is not working is that I am not able to compile the library.

I downloaded the source code for the library from:
https://openfoam-extend.svn.sourcefo...ries/groovyBC/

I created a new folder named groovyBC in the applications folder and copied the source code into it and tried to compile it with the command "wmake libso".
But I get the following error.

gali@SAI:~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/applications/groovyBC> wmake libso

OK. This is something that can be worked with.

The error lies here:

Obviously the parser-generator bison is missing. Install that (propably a package of the same name, but you never know with SuSE)

Hello,

Thank you very much for your advice.I have installed bison on my machine and I could compile groovyBC library successfully.
I tried to run the groovy wave tank case now.The command blockmesh worked fine.Then the command setFields also worked fine.After these two commans I wanted to check the VOF patch and so I have given paraFoam command.
In paraFoam,in the object inspector if I select gamma in the Vol Field Status the paraFoam exits,with the following messages on the terminal.

Can you please help me with this.


Create mesh for time = 0

Reading setFieldsDict

Setting field default values
Setting volScalarField gamma
Setting volVectorField U

Setting field region values
Adding cells with center within box (0 0 -1) (30 0.1 0)
Setting volScalarField gamma

End

Yeah. That's a "funny" error. It only happens on Linux-machines, but not on Macs (and I think that example case was created on a Mac).

Edit the system/controlDict. Change the line that says

libs ("libgroovyBC.so");

(or similar) to

libs ("libOpenFOAM.so" "libgroovyBC.so");

For normal programs this should make no difference but for paraview it is quite important.

I just checked: the fix was already described on the Wiki-page.

@Eric Paterson: If you read this. Could you incorporate this fix into the next tar of groovyWaveTank that you upload (for the benefit of the poor non-Macians)?

I have a problem getting the "groovywavetank" test case running. After trying with OF 1.6 (where I had a lot of trouble because of the changes) I tried to run it in OF 1.5. I compiled groovyBC with Bison 2.3, because it was the newest I found in Synaptic, it seemed to work fine. blockMesh and setFields worked too, but when I try to start interFoam, I get:

The error message you're reporting seems to be due to a different format for specifying the linear solvers. Have a look at the tutorial-files in 1.5 and replace it with the specification for pcorr there.

Bernhard

PS: It has nothing to do with groovyBC. For once i didn't mess anything up

Thank your for your help, I got it working. Maybe the example was created using a dev-Version? For my OF 1.5 it works with the fvSolution posted below.

1. use the OF sqrt operator on this scalar, or
2. convert q to a double, then use the usual sqrt operator

The compiler can't make this decision for you, so it yelps! What you need to do is something like

Foam::sqrt(q)

which specifies the use of the sqrt function from the Foam namespace.

Dear grtabor,
Do you have used directMapped condition for turbulent inlet ? It seems that OpenFOAM can only simplely map the internal plane value to the inlet. but I want to do like this :return the internal value multiply an function of z to the inlet. eugene said maybe you can do this. Could you give me some suggestions ?
Thank you very much.

Hey Daniele,


did you solve the problem? It seems, I need to do it quite similar. Do you have some code snippets for me?

Thanks in advance!

Tobi

Hi Eveyone,

I want to implement a transient boundary conditions, hence I need boundaryData file under constant. However,the problem is the property that I want to vary with time is dimensionedScalar (No_Read in CreateFields.H) instead of volScalarField. What can I do to implement this? I have tried to put this in the solver, but doesn't work.

if (runTime.value() > 500)
{
Q = 600;
}
else
{
Q = 0;
}

Suggestions will be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Robert

Hi Robert,

what exactly does not work? Is there any error message?

Hi Toby,

I'm using pimpleFoam plus other bits of codings from different solvers. I can check the Q in the time folder and see that in the nonuniformList <scalar> not everything is zero which means the loop doesn't work.

Kind Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

did you try something like
Quote:
Info << "Time" << runTime.value() << endl;
if (runTime.value() > 500)
{
Q = 600;
Info << "True" << endl;
}
else
{
Q = 0;
Info << "False" << endl;
}
Info << "Q= " << Q << endl;
?
